Milbank Hall is the oldest building on the Barnard College campus. It is also the northernmost building on the site, bordering 120th Street at its rear. It stretches the entire (narrow) width of the campus as well, from Broadway to Claremont Avenue. The small courtyard garden formed by its wings is one of the few green spaces on Barnard's small and intensely developed campus.
The term "Milbank Hall" is actually a blanket expression for the building, whose three wings each have their own names: Milbank Hall proper, Brinckerhoff Hall, and Fiske Hall.
The complex was designed and built in 1896-1897 by the architects Lamb & Rich.[1]
