ANNAPOLIS, June II, 1903.
Symmetry was the keynote Of design in
the Greek architecture Of the classical pc
Rod This same symmetry is followed
practically in all modern designs Of
monumental character, such our public
buildings, the most notable example Of
which is the United States Capitol build
ing at Washington. This symmetry of de-
sign has been observed in the scheme at
Annapolis for rebuilding the Naval Acad-
envy, and an effort has been made to locate
every building at point Of vantage for
the work Of the institution as well as to
satisfy the eye.
The initial step toward rebuilding the
Naval Academy was taken in 1895 by the
appointment Of the Mathews commission.
which examined the needs of the insti
tuition and reported that the buildings were
unsafe and the arrangement OF the 1nStitu-
ton unsanitary. AS a result part of this
report was layout which was filed show
Ing a comprehensive scheme for the re-
building of the Naval Academy. This was
drawn up by Ernest Flagg, architect. at
the request Of the Secretary Of the Navy,
and suggested the rebuilding along the
lines laid down by the layout submitted
by the Mathews commission. Congress, as
a result of this report. was asked to make
necessary appropriations for improve
ments and alterations
After a great deal of time in study and
preparation had been given to the needs
of the institution the work of rebuilding
the Naval Academy was finally COM
menced March %, 1890 For six years the
work has been in progress and it is ex-
pected that it will be two years more be-
fore the buildings are completed. Mr..
Flagg was selected architect to develop
the designs for all the buildings They are
located in three main groups, one on each
side of the campus, the Severn river water
front being on the fourth side. The rec
tangular campus measures approximately
quarter of mile square.
The main entrance to the Naval Academy
is from Annapolis on the side opposite the
Severn river water front On the Annapolis
side is the chapel. fanked on either side
by the superintendent residence and ad-
ministration building, all built OF especially
manufactured granite-colored brick. with
trimmings of granite. To the right are
the midshipmen's quarters, flanked on eth
er side by the armory and boat house, all
of which are built of granite. TO the left
lie the academic, physics and chemistry,
library. marine. engineering and naval con-
struction buildings, portions of which are
built of granite and granite-colored brick;
arranged in pleasing desiea. The thiro
group consisting of the officers houses.

Of the midshipmen in the exercise Of their
duties about the buildings.
The building, as originally designed,
called for the ground floor Of granite. with
granite belt courses and cornices above,
with the major portion of the walls of the
first, second and third stories faced with
brick. Before the ground story was COM
pleted however, granite was substituted
for all brick facings above this. CIV

sive and substantial In effect. In the main
building. on the level with the parade
ground on the Chesapeake front. are To-
Gated the kitchen, bakery, laundry COM
missary and general stores, while within
the ample terrace is the mess hail. 75x35O
feet.
The Main Entrance.
The midshipmen's quarters on the first
floor. are entered by a vestibule built of
Indiana limestone four full stories In height
Limestone columns with ornamental cap
coverings and carvings, lighted by many
electric lights, adorn this unique vestibule
The floor Is laid in mosaic, and ample STAIR
ways, to the right and left. lead to the
rooms of the executive officers and beyond
to the rooms of the midshipmen.
One of the chief features of the building is
the main corridor, of unusual length and
breadth. Passing on from the vestibule pa
vilion one enters the stair hall pavilion,
only separated from the vestibule pavilion
stone. At an elevation of twenty feet an
ample promenade gallery extends around
these two pavilions. This gallery is on
level with the memorial hail.
Directly ahead one comes to the grand
stairway. of Indiana limestone, with elab-
crate newell columns and broad, easy steps
leading up to the memorial hall. At the
head of these stairs are a pair of bronze
doors, which cost $4,000 and are a gift
of Col. r. NJ. Thompson of New York
friend Of the Naval Academy and president
of the Jersey Central railroad. Col. Thomp-
son formerly midshipman and takes
a lively interest in his alma mater. The
bronze doors presented by him of hand
some design. typical of nautical and naval
features, and. like everything else about the
building, will bespeak their purpose.
Where Trophies Are Kept.
The purpose of Memorial Hall Is for the
exhibit of trophies of war which are stored
at the Naval Academy, and which date
from the revolution to the time of Dewey
and the battle of Manila. The room will
be used for class reunions. and the annual
meeting of the naval alumni will be held
there 1t will also be recreation and read
ing room for midshipmen when not at study.
Evening star. [volume] (Washington, D.C.) 1854-1972, 1905-06-18

The grand stairway is really an essential
feature of the building. On either side are
stairways leading from the mess hall on the
ground floor level. This room is also built
of limestone highly ornamented. The cell
ing is paneled in ornamental plaster work.
On either side of the central portion are
located wings containing the sleeping
apartments and study rooms Of the midship-
men. On one side Of the corridor are rooms
sixteen feet square, to be used as study
rooms for the midshipmen. These rooms
have water view, outlook on the broad
expanse of the Severn river and the Chesa-
peake bay. Immediately across the corrf-
dor are rooms of the same size, divided into
two parts, which are used as bed rooms for
the same two students For each of these
large rooms SO divided is provided shower
bath and locker. Ample toilet rooms are on
all the floors.
Spacious Courts.
Interior courts 100 feet square will be
found in the heart of the armory and of the
boat house wings. These open to the sky
and will be planted with grass and flow
ers and will contain flowing fountains and
shade trees. The building Is six stories
high and fireproof. The method of con-
struction is unique, there being wood
other than the top flooring, windows and
door frames. The interior walls and floors
are of cement, but little steel even being
used below the roof.
The midshipmen's quarters. like all the
other buildings will be heated from power
plant one-quarter of a mile distant from
the quarters. From this power house. to be
built out on the Severn river, all piping and
wiring will be conveyed in large tunnels
seven feet in height by nine feet in width.
In case of blizzard or other difficulty the
midshipmen could march through the tun-
nels in columns of two from one building
to another under cover.
The Chapel.
The chapel is being built at a cost of
$500 600 and is rapidly nearing completion.
1t is located near the center of the
grounds and it's dome, which is 210 feet
above sea level, can be seen for great
distance down the Chesapeake bay. In it's
outlines the chapel is somewhat similar to
a Grecian cross. The main floor is a circle
and has a diameter of SO feet inches,
but extending on each side are transepts
or wings, giving the interior width of
116 feet s inches line with the tran
septs, while the outside wall of the struc-
ture is 100 feet The building is 81 feet
high and over 1t the dome rises an addi-
tional 126 feet. The dome is 60 feet In
diameter at it's base. 1t is supported by a
series of columns One cupola of the dome
forms the ceiling of the chapel, which is
