Buiding Overview: Areeda Hall

Built as an addition to Langdell Hall in 1929, Langdell West was renamed in 1995 in honor of Langdell Professor of Law Phillip Areeda (1930-1995). Thirty faculty offices, along with a seminar room and staff lounge, are located in the first three floors along corridors. The fourth and fifth floors, reopened in 1997 upon completion of the Langdell Hall renovation project, contain the Library’s reference center and administrative offices. A new glass-enclosed bridge links the fourth floor of Areeda with the foreign law collections housed in the International Legal Studies Library, located in the Reginald F. Lewis International Law Center.
