was constructed in 1942. Architects Diboll and Kessels designed
the buildings in a Romanesque style and built it to conform
to the style of the early campus buildings. The exterior is
Bedford limestone on the front and sides. The rear exterior
is of limestone colored brick. Mrs. Norman Mayer donated to
Tulane the funds to construct a building in memory of her husband,
a prominent New Orleans cotton broker, to be used by the College
of Commerce and Business Administration. She gave an additional
sum for the construction of a building to house the Norman Mayer
Memorial Library. The second section of this building was added
in 1949.
