Remsen Hall at Hopkins becomes national landmark

The American Chemical Society named Remsen Hall on Johns Hopkins University’s Homewood campus a National Historic Chemical Landmark. The American Chemical Society has designated Remsen Hall at Johns Hopkins University as a National Historic Chemical Landmark, making it one of about 100 places to receive this distinction. The designation puts Remsen on a different landmark list than the National Register of Historic Places, which is determined by the National Park Service after property owners, local governments, and historical groups submit nominations. Remsen, a medical doctor and professor, founded the first American chemistry graduate program at Hopkins 150 years ago and is perhaps best known for his co-discovery of saccharin in 1887. The hall was named in honor of Ira Remsen (1846 to 1927).
