DuPont Hall, on the campus of the University of Delaware, is a three-story facility designed for the College of Engineering. The building features laboratories, clean rooms and offices. The addition was designed to retain the campus' historic look with a brick exterior, limestone steps, decorative cast cornice work, copper roofing and rain gutters and much more.
