Located on the west quadrangle of the Rice campus, Baker Hall was completed in 1997. It anchors the southeast corner of the quad and bounds the southern edge of the plaza, which is reminiscent of the one that once graced the front of Lovett Hall.

To the north of Baker Hall, immediately across the Jamail Plaza, with its dramatic fountain, is the Jones Graduate School of Management, housed in McNair Hall and completed in 2002. More information about this building is available from the Jones Graduate School of Management.

Immediately underneath the Jones Graduate School of Management is the Central Campus Garage. The garage provides 487 parking spaces in two underground stories and offers convenient parking to guests and staff members in the west quadrangle and all over campus.

Adjoining Baker Hall to the west is Alice Pratt Brown Hall, completed in 1991, which houses the Shepherd School of Music and the Dean of Music. More information about this building is available from the Shepherd School of Music.
