Seth Low Hall is a Teachers College-owned residential building at 106 Morningside Drive that serves as faculty housing. Curiously, it is the only building on Morningside Heights honoring Seth Low, the President of Columbia University ([[Low Library honors Low's father, Abiel Abbot Low.)
History
Seth Low Hall was built by private developers as Janus Court in 1910. In the [[1919]-1920 fiscal year, Teachers College purchased it for $176,000 (along with Bancroft Hall for $257,000) to satisfy the booming demand for student housing.[1][2]
