Campbell Hall (UC Berkeley)

Campbell Hall is an academic building at the University of California, Berkeley.

[3] Campbell Hall was constructed to house the departments of astronomy, statistics, and mathematics, and the campus computer center.

Two small observatory domes were incorporated into Campbell Hall, but it was soon decided that it was not a useful location for astronomical observation because of weather and increasing urban light pollution.

[4] Its replacement, opened in 2015, is part of a long-term campus project to modernize, expand, and better integrate the physics complex at UC Berkeley.

[4] The new building has 25% more square footage than the old one and houses laboratories, instructional spaces, academic and administrative offices, support spaces, a research laboratory called the Center for Integrated Precision and Quantum Measurement that is a high-stability, low-noise research facility, and a rooftop observatory.
