The University of California’s school of architecture was the first to be established in the western United States. Even before the College of Architecture was officially founded, architectural instruction was taking place at the Berkeley campus. In January 1906, the architecture department received its own home on the northern edge of the campus. It was built as a temporary structure rather than as a component of the campus’s “permanent” architectural plan.

North Gate Hall was designated a City of Berkeley Landmark on 20 September 1976. Since 1982, it has been listed as #82004648 on the National Register of Historic Places.
