Served as Northwestern University's library until 1970. Modeled after King’s College Chapel in Cambridge (gothic style). It opened on January 3, 1933 and served as Northwestern University's library until 1970 when the new, main library building was completed. The Deering Library presently houses the Government Publications Department and the University Archives on the first floor, the Music Library on the second floor, and the Map Collection, the Art Reference Collection and the Special Collections Department on the third floor. The Deering Library was designed by the renowned architect James Gamble Rogers. Its architectural style is modified gothic and its thematic inspiration is King's College Chapel in Cambridge, England. Construction of Deering began in 1931 and took two years at a cost of $1.25 million,donated in the main by the Deering and McCormick families, generous benefactors of Northwestern University for over a century. The Library was named after Charles Deering ( 1852-1927), son of William Deering, naval officer, manufacturer, art patron and collector, civic leader and philanthropist.

Northwestern University is a private, coeducational, non-sectarian university, located in Evanston, Illinois and Chicago, Illinois. Northwestern's main campus is a 240-acre parcel in Evanston, along the shore of Lake Michigan. Northwestern University enrolls approximately 15,000 full-time students (including approximately 8,000 undergraduates) and employs nearly 7,100 faculty and staff members.
The Evanston Galleria was built in 1929 as a Marshall Fields Department Store. It was one of the first Marshall Fields outside of downtown Chicago. The store closed in 1987. The building was then converted into retail and apartments.
The complex itself, an impressive structure wrapped in glass, aluminum, and limestone on the northeast corner of the Northwestern campus, right on Lake Michigan—an enviable site not only for the dazzling lake view, but also for its proximity to the campus’ student residences, classrooms and other facilities.
