Excellent condition but the corners are slightly frayed
Photograph of the back side of McNally Building, with the former chapel, the library rear brown double-door entrance, and the Science Building in view. Note how the chapel's new steps wrap around the library rear entrance to lead up to the chapel upper level doors. The upper floor space was renovated into the McNally Theatre Auditorium which opened on March 1 1982, with the stage moved to the east wall and the auditorium seating in the west wall (adjoining McNally Building). In 1989 the chapel's double-height basement gymnasium was converted into two levels housing the Faculty Lounge, IT office, The Den computer lab, and classrooms while still retaining the external facade of the original 1953 church.
