New and Old

[University of Memphis Cecil C. Humphreys School of Law]  When I went to law school at U of M, the old on-campus building was cramped, poorly designed, and constantly flooded.  This building, originally built in three stages between the 1880s and 1929, served as the U.S. Customs House, Federal court house, and Post Office over the years.  Creative and adaptive reuse by the U of M made it the majestic new School of Law, which opened in January 2010.
