History
Straz Tower used to be the central branch of YMCA Milwaukee. Marquette first started leasing space in the "Y" in 1974 and purchased the building in 1993. Formerly known on campus as East Hall, the building was completely renovated in 2000. Straz Tower is named after Marquette business alumnus David A. Straz, Jr., chairman of the board of Southern Exchange Bank in Tampa, Fla., and a member of Marquette's Board of Trustees.
