Built in 1924, the Armory was designed to allow the school's quasi-military battalions to drill inside
during inclement weather.
Serving today as Girard College's gym, the Armory holds four regulation-sized basketball courts
upstairs and six badminton courts downstairs, girls and boys locker rooms and a raised track.

On any campus except Girard College, the Chapel would be considered a remarkable building.
Completed in 1933 and designed by a prominent Philadelphia firm, the Chapel contains the
fourth largest pipe organ in the city of Philadelphia. Its exterior boasts a complex collection of
varied religious icons, although the building was designed to be non-sectarian. The Chapel
seats 2,400.
