The UAB Chemistry Building (originally University College Building No. 2 or the Natural Sciences Building, later the Physical Sciences Building) at 901 14th Street South was the second major building project undertaken in 1970 for the development of a College of General Studies at UAB. Ground was broken at the site of the $2 million classroom, office and laboratory building in July 1970 and it was completed in 1972.
