Gould Hall is the headquarters of the
College of Architecture and Urban Planning. This hall was named for Carl F. Gould (1873-1939) when it opened in 1972.Gould was a distinguished Seattle architect, whose 1915 campus plan still shapes the character of the campus.. He designed the basic plan and 28 buildings (46 if additions and supervision are counted). His institutional works best demonstrate Gould's genius for creating superb spaces with concern for ample daylighting. The soaring, vari-colored reading room of Suzzallo Library is the great room of Seattle. He justified a modified Tudor Gothic for the University campus because its large glazed areas let in light.
