"The cornerstone was laid on October 8, 1917, the two-hundredth anniversary of the raising of the first college building in New Haven. The Memorial Quadrangle was completed in June of 1921. The bricks used in the construction of the quadrangle are old ones from torn down buildings, giving a low-toned soft pink impossible in new bricks."

The first painted / stained glass window of the Union League depicts the Whitfield House, of Guilford, which dates from 1639, also known as the, "Old Stone House." The second painted / stained glass window appears to feature a seated woman from an original composition by George H. Boughton, titled, "Pilgrim Exiles," (rather than the phantom ship of New Haven, which was an earlier guess) as she gazes pensively out to sea.
