HALL
HISTORY
Constructed in 1925 as a residence for 195 men; One of the first
residence halls to incorporate the proximity of the lake in
its design (thus, the picturesque views of St. Mary's Lake through
its archway); Dedicated in honor of Joseph Lyons, an English
professor in the 1860's; Originally known as an honors hall;
Converted in 1974 to Notre Dame's sixth residence hall for women;
Hall leadership coordinates annual Mara Fox Run which raises
funds for a scholarship of a former resident of Lyons Hall who
was killed in 1993. |
ROOM

The architecture of Lyons Hall creates
many unique room configurations. Approximately 40% of the rooms
are singles and 30% are doubles. There are quite a few (~15%)
4-person suites, too. The remaining rooms are triples, 2-person
suites, and 3-person suites. A few rooms have private bathrooms. |
