Goodnow Hall is a co-ed residence hall in the Kramer Complex at Kansas State University. It is located on the West side of Kansas State's Manhattan, Kansas campus next to Wefald and Marlatt Hall, on the corner of Denison Avenue and Claflin Road. It has a residence of approximately 600 students, and is known for its high concentration of Engineering and Architectural students.[1]

History

Goodnow Hall was dedicated in honor of Isaac T. Goodnow, one of the early settlers in Manhattan and founder of the Blue Mont Central College,[2] which later became Kansas State University.

After the construction of Wefald Hall, Goodnow underwent renovation in the 2018-2019 school year.
