State campus. Originally designed as a laboratory for horticulturist Liberty Hyde Bailey in 1888, who designed it as the first distinctively horticultural laboratory in the United States. This building housed the horticulture department until 1924, when the new horticulture building, now known as Old Horticulture, opened. The building was renamed in 1961 after Harry J. Eustace, who chaired Horticulture Department from 1908 to 1918. In 1999 the building underwent a $3 million renovation thanks to a donation by alumni Jeffery and Kathryn Cole, being renamed in their honor. Eustace-Cole now serves as the headquarters of Michigan State University Honors College. Marshall-Adams Hall The Bacteriology Laboratory opened in 1902 and was the first free standing bacteriology laboratory in the United States. The building housed the Department of Bacteriology and Hygiene, now known as Microbiology and Molecular Genetics. The department stayed there until 1952 when it moved to Giltner Hall. The building was originally named Marshall Hall in honor of Charles Edward Marshall, the first department head. In 2002, following a renovation funded by Michigan State University trustee Randall Pittman, Pittman requested that it be renamed for university president and Professor of Economics Walter Adams. The Department of Economics houses it offices in the building today. Old Botany Built in 1892, it replaced a Botany building located in the Beal Gardens that was destroyed by fire in 1890. Veterinary Laboratory The Veterinary Laboratory was built in 1885 on a site just west of Agriculture Hall, it is the only building that was part of Lab Row to have been demolished. The lab was supplanted by a new veterinary clinic in 1913 and was torn down in 1930 when the new Anatomy Building, the first phase of what is now Giltner Hall, was built.
