Abstract:
A tetra style Greek portico complete with Ionic columns once adorned the south face of Gerrard Hall, the fourth oldest building on the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill campus. The portico was removed seventy-two years ago because the building was thought to face the wrong way toward a proposed road. The road was never built. Preservationists are requesting the portico to be rebuilt.
