Princeton of the daytime filtered slowly into his consciousness—West and Reunion, redolent of the sixties, Seventy-nine Hall, brick-red and arrogant, Upper and Lower Pyne, aristocratic Elizabethan ladies not quite content to live among shopkeepers, and, topping all, climbing with clear blue aspiration, the great dreaming spires of Holder and Cleveland towers.

HISTORICAL BACKGROUND
Built in 1836, likely from plans by John Notman, West College was Princeton's second dormitory (after East College). It served as a residence hall until 1964, when its interior was adapted to house offices for deans and other undergraduate academic administrators. In 2017, it was renamed Morrison Hall.
