Designed by architects Polivka and McMahon, the building was constructed and opened in the early 1940s, then used by the National Youth Administration, a branch of the Works Progress Administration (WPA). In 1947, the building reopened as a men's dormitory for St. Cloud State and renamed Brainard Hall in honor of faculty member and acting president Dudley Brainard. Brainard Hall closed in 1958 and was demolished in 1960.
