The University of Minnesota's East Bank campus in Minneapolis, MN, is home to the historic Walter Library. This architectural masterpiece was first constructed in 1924 and is now the site of the College of Science and Engineering Library and Dean's Office, the Digital Technology and Digital Media Centers, the Learning Resources Center, and the Minnesota Supercomputing Institute.

Located on the beautiful Northrop Mall at the heart of the University of Minnesota's campus in Minneapolis, the Walter Library is a magnificent structure surrounded by the university's physics, mathematics, chemistry, and administration buildings, as well as Northrop Auditorium.


๏ปฟAs one of the largest libraries on campus, it is a popular destination for students seeking a tranquil space to study and learn, with an impressive 1,647,162 annual visitors.

When Mortenson Construction and the University of Minnesota sought a trusted partner for the glass and glazing historical restoration of the Walter Library, they turned to W. L. Hall Company. Recognizing our expertise in finding innovative solutions that meet current codes for wind resistance and safety while also preserving the architectural integrity of buildings, Mortenson and the U of M entrusted us with this important project.

Upon careful consideration, W. L. Hall Company determined that utilizing Wausau Window Systems would be the optimal solution for preserving the building's architectural authenticity and fulfilling code compliance requirements.

Mortenson Construction and the University of Minnesota expressed satisfaction with W. L. Hall Company's project management, adherence to schedule, preservation of historical integrity, energy efficiency, and aesthetic appeal achieved through installing Wausau Windows in the Walter Library glass and glazing restoration project.
