Built in 1947, the industrial building housed the Forest Products Lab, which later morphed into the Forest Research Lab. At one point it was used for engineering research – especially large scale problems in industrial engineering. In 1992, a fire destroyed the south part of the building. It was replaced in 1996 and the building’s name changed to Cascade Hall. This building now houses the Department of Public Safety and Oregon State Police. In 2015, renovations were made to accommodate INTO OSU classrooms.

Oregon Digital: Contains many historical photographs, including some from the 1992 fire that destroyed half the building, including most of Printing and Mailing Services' facilities and equipment.

SCARC: While "Cascade Hall" is a relatively recent name, "Industrial Building" returns more findings on the Special Collections and Archival Research Center's page, including the OSU Memorabilia Collection (Box 27.17).
