Old Main, University of Arizona
Due to neglect by the University , Old Main fell into disrepair and was condemned by the City of Tucson in 1938 . Demolition was averted when the US Navy repaired the building in 1942 , for use as a Naval Indoctrination Training School during World War II . The Navy then paid $20 , 000 in 1945 to turn it back into a functioning campus building .
