One of the many Georgian Revival buildings on the campus of Choate Rosemary Hall in Wallingford is the Paul Mellon Humanities Center. It was a gift of philanthropist and Choate graduate Paul Mellon, an art collector who also founded the Yale Center for British Art. Built in 1938, the building’s design by architect Charles F. Fuller has strong similarities to the Governor’s Palace at Colonial Williamsburg. The building was renovated in 1989 through another gift from Mellon.
