The Annmary Brown Memorial was built as a library, art gallery, and mausoleum between 1903 and 1907 to the design of Rhode Island architect Norman Isham. It is distinguished by monumental bronze doors featuring representations of Art and Learning. The Memorial was independently run until 1948, at which point it was transferred to Brown University's control. Interestingly enough, the final remains of General and Mrs. Hawkins lie in a crypt near the rear of the building.
