Rhodes Hall – UGA 1905 (1906, Category 2). Rhodes Hall is listed as a contributing building in the Oglethorpe Avenue Historic District. Rhodes Hall was built in 1906 and named for Alexander Rhodes, former business manager of the State Normal School. The building was designed by architect Haralson Bleckley of Athens, Georgia. It is a good example of a Neoclassical building of the early twentieth century.
A rear wing was added to the building in 1958. At the same time, the front porch was repaired. The building was renovated in 1960. In 1971, the building was converted for use as a Navy Supply Corps Officer’s Club and Navy Exchange. In 1985, the Navy Exchange was relocated. Renovations in 1986 and 1991 led to conversion of the building for use as offices for Navy support organizations. The building retains integrity and appears to contribute to a National Register- eligible historic district. It is assessed as a Category 2 resource.
