Hampton Normal builds new women’s science hall at costly Hampton site
The Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute in Hampton Va will dedicate a new two story building named the Domestic Science and Agricultural building by next spring. It will be twice the size and cost over twice as much as the Armstrong and Slater Memorial Trade School hall, with extensive kitchen, dairy, farm laboratory, conservatory, and sewing facilities for female students. Fundraising, largely from New York donors, produced about $15,000 with a largest gift of $20,000. The project includes a new water system and steam-pipe recovery, to be completed by October.
