The Hub

Today, the Hub’s main attraction is its array of vending machines, but once it really was the hub of student activity. Originally built in 1892 as a station for the Dinky train, which provided transportation between downtown and campus, it was later used as a bookstore and post office. Today’s building has been rebuilt, but it includes a piece of timber from the original train station.
