 It is named in honor of the 5th President of RPI, John F. Winslow, who donated half of the construction cost.
 The building is brick with stone trimmings and was originally constructed with butternut, chestnut and black walnut.
 The whole building was fitted for complete courses in general and analytical chemistry.
 The design and construction was overseen by Professor Henry B. Nason, head of the department of chemistry at the Institute.
 The lower story contained the metallurgical laboratory and second story contained the chemical laboratory, store rooms and work rooms.
 The laboratory could accommodate about 40 students.
 The third story contained a lecture room, a private study, the library and a recitation room.

 It was one of the earliest locations of the dye industry in the United States, and the first American location for the production of Aspirin.
Aspirin, also known as acetylsalicylic acid (ASA), is a medication used to treat pain, fever, or inflammation.
 Specific inflammatory conditions in which aspirin is used include Kawasaki disease, pericarditis, and rheumatic fever.
 Aspirin given shortly after a heart attack decreases the risk of death.
 Aspirin is also used long-term to help prevent heart attacks, ischaemic strokes, and blood clots, in people at high risk.
 Aspirin may also decrease the risk of certain types of cancer, particularly colorectal cancer.
 For pain or fever, effects typically begin within 30 minutes.
 Aspirin is a nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drug (NSAID) and works similar to other NSAIDs but also suppresses the normal functioning of platelets.
