  The Campus Mall
 

The Mall, a grassy, tree-lined lawn, forms the center of Carnegie Mellon's original campus

   
 

Henry Hornbostel's classic architecture style can be seen in the buildings that surround the Mall: Doherty Hall, Hamerschlag Hall, Porter Hall and Baker Hall. (Wean Hall, which also lines the Mall, features a modern style of architecture.) Students and faculty members frequent this outdoor area as they use the nearby academic facilities.

As a center of campus, the Mall is used throughout the year for a variety of events. An orientation picnic for new students, music concerts, and convocation and commencement ceremonies take place here.

Along the walkway of the Mall, students race miniature mobile robots during the Mobot competition each spring.

In the fall of 2000, Carnegie Mellon's Mall took center stage in the national spotlight when it was used as a location for a presidential campaign rally. A crowd of 16,000 packed the lawn to participate in the political event.
