| The old gymnasium was built in the fall of 1871 in order to support the [[athletics|Trinity Boat Club's]] need for training space and indoor calisthenics ((Trinity Tablet, May 1871)). The "large barn-like structure" ((Trinity Tablet, June 22, 1903)) was moved to the [[summit_campus|Summit Street]] campus North of [[jarvis_hall|Jarvis Hall]] in 1878, where it stood until it burned down on May 13, 1896, nearly 10 years after [[alumni_hall|Alumni Hall]] was completed. | The old gymnasium was built in the fall of 1871 in order to support the [[athletics|Trinity Boat Club's]] need for training space and indoor calisthenics ((Trinity Tablet, May 1871)).
