Steinbach Hall, also known as the John Pitkin Norton House, is a historic building on the campus of Yale University in New Haven, Connecticut, U.S..
History
The house was built in 1848–49 as a private residence for John Pitkin Norton, a science professor at Yale University.[1]
It was purchased by Yale University in 1923.[2] It was home to the Yale School of Management until 2015, when the Department of Astronomy moved into the building.[3]
Architectural significance
The house was designed by architect Henry Austin as an Italian villa.[1] It includes "flat and semicircular arch motifs in window openings, bracketed cornices, and recessed front entry behind arcade with semicircular arches."[2]
It was "remodelled" by architect Edward Larrabee Barnes in 1979.[2] It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places as a contributing property to the Hillhouse Avenue Historic District since September 13, 1985.[2]
