Construction of the North Wing began in 1856, and provided lecture theatres, a museum and later, space for a library. A South Wing was finally completed in 1969, fully enclosing the Quadrangle.

Date A point or period of time associated with an event in the lifecycle of the resource 1856 Description An account of the resource The University of Melbourne was established on swampland, fed by creeks. A creek, known as Townend Creek, flowed along what became Elizabeth Street, out into the Yarra, it was an extension of another stream that began inside the University, and flowed down what is now Bouverie Street. Prior to European settlement, the site of the lake was a swampy area, significant to the Indigenous inhabitants, that linked into the adjacent creek (under what is now the site of the MSD Building). The creek was dammed in 1861 and the resulting lake became a central and much-loved feature of the campus; used for yabbying, mock battles and boat races, as well as being a site of protest and punishment. The lake was progressively filled in during the 1930s Initially, the areas not occupied by buildings became lawn, and then, in the late 1960s, in the wake of the 1968 revolutions overseas, as part of the “riot-proof campus”, the lawns were dug up and replaced by “a seemingly random asymmetrical selection of tiled and concrete rectangles.” This was variously known as both the Union Lawn and the Concrete Lawn, and still plays an important part in University life as a place where students meet and University events occur.

It was designed by Joseph Reed in the Gothic perpendicular style and was described by George Tibbits as “the architectural jewel of the nineteenth century university,” and as the University’s “soul”. On the 25th of January, 1952, Wilson Hall was destroyed in less than an hour by a fire, possibly caused by an electrical fault.
