Gartley Hall – LEED Gold

Overview

The University of Âé¶¹´«Ã½ Gartley Hall is located on the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Mānoa campus. It is a three-story 25,503-square-foot building. The building is the second oldest on campus and is listed on the Hawaii Register of Historic Places. It was originally constructed in 1921, and is a part of the ""Old Quadrangle,” which includes Crawford, George, Âé¶¹´«Ã½ and Dean halls. The building was named after Alonzo Gartley, who was a Honolulu businessman and the first chairman of the Âé¶¹´«Ã½Board of Regents. Gartley Hall was originally designed as a laboratory facility for chemistry, physical and sugar technology. The building was evacuated in late 2009 due to health and safety concerns caused by structural damage. Gartley Hall was renovated in 2013, to provide a home for the Myron B Thompson School of Social Work and to promote a more energy-efficient campus. 

The building earned the LEED Silver rating for utilization of energy efficient lighting and equipment, installation of photovoltaics and solar tube systems, diversion of construction waste, and more.
