1620 SW Park Avenue, Portland, Oregon 97201

Lincoln Hall stands at the intersection of SW Market and Broadway, with the Park Blocks to the west and Cramer Hall to the south. The building has three floors above ground and a basement. A tunnel from the basement leads south to Cramer Hall, and a covered skybridge from the third floor connects to the third floor of Cramer.

The Music Department's offices and classrooms are located in Lincoln. An auditorium on the basement level (Room 75) seats 200 and is mostly used for concerts. A much larger auditorium on the first floor -- the Lincoln Performance Hall -- seats 476 on a steeper grade, has full curtains and lighting, and features both concerts and theater productions. A much smaller space in Room 115 known as the Studio Theater is used for more intimate, experimental student productions and rehearsals.

Lincoln Hall was originally Portland School District's Lincoln High School, constructed in 1911. The architectural firm, Whitehouse & Fouilhoux, designed Lincoln in a classical revival style with high Corinthian columns around the Park Blocks entry, balcony projections and Broadway false relief panels. Lincoln became PSU's first classroom building when the university moved to its present location in 1953. In 1979 an exterior court on the Broadway side was filled in to create a large auditorium.
