Renee and David Kaplan Hall, located at 415 Portola Plaza on the campus of the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA) was previously the Humanities Building, and was renamed after two long-time professors in 2018. It was one of the original four buildings – along with Royce Hall, the Chemistry Building (now Haines Hall), and the College Library (now the Powell Library) – when UCLA moved in 1929 from its original campus on Vermont Street to Westwood. At the time is was called the Physics-Biology Building. It was designed by Allison & Allison in the Romanesque Revival style.
