4/11/2025 - ASU Matthews Hall Building


This building was built in 1918 and was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.

Matthews Hall is the oldest intact dormitory on the ASU campus.  It was designed by L. G. Knipe and dedicated in 1920 as a men's dormitory.  It was named after the president Dr. Arthur John Matthews.

By 1930, it was a women's dormitory, and the dormitory was renamed Carrie Matthews Hall for the president's wife.

The building currently houses a photography gallery and offices for the Herberger Institute for Design and the Arts.  Also, the home to the ASU Forensics (Speech & Debate) team.
