Title	Knoll, 1974
Subject	Knoll (Ames, Iowa) Iowa State University
Description	This view of the eastern side of the Knoll shows the front entryway and open air porch. A bricked sidewalk runs in front of the house. The right tower is hidden by a large tree.
Historical Description	The Knoll is home to the president of Iowa State University. It was designed by Liebbe, Nourse, and Rasmussen and built by C.R. Cushman in 1900-1901. President William Beardshear (1891-1902) and his family were the first to live in the Knoll. In 1912, before the arrival of President Raymond Pearson (1912-1926), the Knoll temporarily housed the Department of Music after a fire had destroyed South Hall. Over the years, the Knoll has been renovated numerous times. The last renovation took place in 2001 and included the addition of a commercial grade kitchen, family room and kitchen for the president's family, and updated electrical and heating and cooling systems.
