Toward the western edge of the campus, this was originally known as North Hall and later renamed to Brantly Hall. It has since been attached to Corbin Hall, to the south, with an addition between the two.

A contributing building to the University of Montana Historic District, more information on the building can be found on Page 7, Section 7 of the U of M Continuation Sheet.
Brantly Hall
Constructed in 1922 following the 1918 Carsley-Gilbert campus master plan, this women’s residence was intended to be part of two U-shaped clusters of men’s and women’s dormitories. Its identical contemporary counterpart, Elrod Hall, and Corbin Hall were the only three buildings of the two “U”s erected before the plan was abandoned in the 1930s. Renowned Helena architects J. G. Link and C. S. Haire designed the handsome Renaissance Revival style facility with its striking red-brown brick façade and simple cream-colored terra cotta ornamentation. Renamed Brantly Hall, the building functioned as a women’s residence until 1987.
