context_section_description: Noyes Lodge was originally built in 1958 as a dining hall. It contained the Pancake House and the Pick-Up, a small grocery, in the 1970s and ’80s. It also contained the Language Resource Center. In 2018, Noyes was completely renovated to be the home of the Tang Welcome Center, the first official welcome center at Cornell. The center, which overlooks Beebe Lake, contains space for exhibitions about the University's history and mission, and serves as a gathering point for visitors and the starting point for campus tours.
