The Graduates Memorial Building, originally named the Graduates' Tercentenary Memorial Building, was constructed to celebrate three hundred years of Trinity College, Dublin's existence.
In May 1897, tenders were invited by Trinity College, Dublin to design a replacement for the residential buildings known as Rotten Row. These buildings were almost architecturally indistinguishable from The Rubrics, which stood from circa 1700. Designs were submitted by Robert John Stirling, Thomas Newenham Deane and Sir Thomas Drew, with Drew's being selected.
The design of the building is such that it is divided into three houses: House 28, and House 30, as student residences, with House 29 in the centre of the building, being used by the societies.
The construction of Memorial Hall was financed by war claims paid to the State of Kansas by the federal government; one for $97,466.02 for equipping and putting soldiers in the field during the American Civil War, and the other for $425,065.43 for repelling invasions of Confederatesoldiers and dealing with American IndianWars.
In 1909, a legislative money appropriation act was passed. A commission selected the site, acquired the land title, and supervised construction of Memorial Hall. On September 27, 1911, PresidentWilliam Howard Taft laid the ceremonial cornerstone. The building was completed in 1914 and dedicated before 25,000 people on May 27 of that same year.

This Is What Remains of the Abandoned Topeka State Hospital in 2021 Part 1 (Topeka Insane Asylum)
The Topeka State Hospital is our first abandoned mental hospital to be featured on the channel. It was eerie going there knowing it had a dark past. Unfortunately, most of the former complex has long been demolished including the building used as the thumbnail. There are still 5 buildings standing and we will show them both in part 1 and 2.

Construction update of Holy Trinity Mausoleum at Mount Calvary Catholic Cemetery in Topeka, KS. Pre-construction sales will continue now that ground-breaking for the Holy Trinity mausoleum has taken place. Once the building dedication and blessing occurs, pre-construction discounts will no longer be available. The Holy Trinity mausoleum will be centrally located in the south side of the cemetery that faces 10th Street. Future plans call for the Catholic cemetery’s main entrance to be relocated from Westchester Road to 10th Street.
