View of outdoor seating area on south side; William H. Miller, who studied architecture under Cornell President Andrew D. White, also employed the Romanesque Revival style in the design of Uris Library (dedicated 1891), which has grown to iconically represent Cornell. Uris Library was expanded from its original cross shape twice--first to expand the library stacks and more recently (by Gunnar Birkerts, 1981-1982) with a below grade addition to add underground reading rooms overlooking Libe Slope.
