Wallach is one of two residence halls that make up the Living Learning Center. Along with Hartley Hall, it is one of the oldest dorms on campus, first constructed in 1904 as part of McKim's Master Plan. Wallach was originally named Livingston Hall, after Robert Livingston, a King's College alumnus active in the American Revolution and the Constitutional Convention. It was renamed Wallach, after Columbia College alumnus Ira D. Wallach, who largely underwrote its restoration and renovation in the late 1970s to the amount of over $2 million.
Wallach Hall was built to mirror its twin, Hartley Hall. Both halls feature single rooms and doubles, the sizes of which vary. Singles range from 94 sq. ft to 130 sq. ft, and doubles between 194 sq. ft and 222 sq. ft. The 9th floor features larger rooms and the 10th floor serves as housing for the building CPA and friends. The ranges in room size are said to be "in the interest of true democracy". In recent years, selection of larger rooms has shifted from wealth to seniority. Following the creation of the LLC and its application process, Hartley and Wallach have lost their place as prized senior dorms (due to its proximity to Hamilton Hall). The LLC's popularity has steadily increased, due largely to the programming coordination of former LLC Residence Life coordinator, Julie Beerntsen, and the RA and CPA staff; the removal of the resident event programming requirement has also played a role in its newfound popularity.
