Baylor Jesse H. Jones Building At 1 Baylor Plz.


Recommended Posts

Today I discovered a whole new building! Hidden away behind the Cullen Building, is the Jesse H. Jones Building. I believe within the building there is a space called Anderson Hall. Presumably named after Monroe Dunaway Anderson.

All the old oil wildcatters definitely donated a lot to our Texas Medical Center.  Lots of buildings are named after The Cullens, The Fondrens, The Alkeks, The Jones',  etc. One strange thing I noticed is John H. Kirby didn't donate much to the TMC.  I don't think there are buildings named after him.  The Kirby family must not have been into philanthropy. His career was lumber and eventually petroleum, so maybe not a wildcatter like the rest of them.

Edit: Here's the photo I took today:
