Note:

Hook designed five original red brick buildings for present Queens College (Presbyterian College for Women) on the campus it opened near Myers Park suburb in 1914. (The school had been located downtown previously.) He also planned some subsequent buildings. The original five buildings are now known as Watkins Art Building, Hayes Hall, Burwell Hall, Jernigan Hall, and McEwen Hall.
