Angell Hall is an academic building at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, designed by renowned architect Albert Kahn and completed in 1924. Named after James Burrill Angell, the university's president from 1871 to 1909, the structure originally connected to University Hall before that building was replaced by Mason Hall and Haven Hall. The building now adjoins Tisch Hall, named for donors Preston and Joan Tisch. Notably, Angell Hall houses an observatory on its fifth-floor roof, equipped with a 0.4-meter Ritchey-Chretien reflector telescope outfitted with spectrograph and camera capabilities, alongside a small radio telescope and Schmidt-Cassegrain instruments. The building is listed as a contributing property on the National Register of Historic Places.
