A Whitman College web page on the Sherwood Athletic Center noted the following of this first gym on campus: "In 1891 students and townspeople banded together to build a single-story wood-frame gym where Anderson Hall now stands. It featured a wooden swimming tank, six feet long and two feet deep, along with a marble exercise floor covered with a mat." (See "Sherwood First Opens Four Decades Ago," 04/29/2009,Accessed 07/14/2011.) Another more modern gym was built at Whitman in 1904-1905 and used until the early 1970s.

Demolished; Anderson Hall later came to occupy the land on which this first wood-frame Whitman gymansium stood.
