Denman Hall, circa 1975.

In 1973 construction was completed on a student residence at UAB.  The new building provided 100 housing units in efficiencies, one-bedroom units, and three-bedroom suites.  In 1975 the residence hall was renamed Denman Hall in honor of Hugh Denman, an executive director of the Housing Authority of the Birmingham District (HABD) and a supporter of UAB.  Since the demolition of older facilities in 2002, Denman Hall has been the oldest remaining residence on the UAB campus.  Denman was closed before the fall 2024 term and demolition of the building began in January 2025.
