In the 1940s the building was upgraded to a double-storey structure and a right wing was added. The University purchased Brostowe Hall, as it was called, in 1974 and acquired the rest of the convent in 1977. The complex was converted into a women’s residence and in 1992 renamed Nerina. The building is a rare example of the Art Nouveau style, featuring decorative motifs such as curved lines and floral or geometric patterns. A new extension to the residence was opened in May 2008.Coloured digital photo, 2048 X 1536, 520 KB.JPEGUniversity of PretoriaHatfield campusArt Nouveau architectureBrostowe HallLadies residenceUniversity of Pretoria -- BuildingsUniversity of Pretoria -- HistoryArchitecture -- South Africa -- PretoriaImage
