Description: The Old U.S. Forest Products Laboratory at 1509 University Avenue in Madison, Wisconsin, was designed in a Georgian Revival style by Albert F. Gallistell of the Arthur Peabody architectural firm and built in 1909. When the Forest Products Laboratory relocated to its current facility at 1 Gifford Pichot Drive in 1932, the School of Engineering's Department of Mining and Metallurgy moved into the Old Lab building. That department, now renamed Materials Science and Engineering, is still housed there. The building was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1985.
