Color postcard, with postmark date of July 14, 1910, featuring the N.J. State Experiment Station located at Rutgers College. Built by the State of New Jersey for the State Agricultural Experiment Station, it also housed the chemistry and biology departments of the college. Today, the building is named New Jersey Hall and is located at 77 Hamilton Street. New Jersey Hall, situated on land deeded to Rutgers by James Neilson, was designed by George K. Parsell in 1889. The structure was partially destroyed by fire in 1903, but was restored without essential changes to its original design. It was added to the New Jersey Register of Historic Places on June 5, 1974 and the National Register of Historic Places on February 24, 1975.
