Expert Tip. Hall Place has been a Glasgow landmark since it was built in 1852. The house was built for Dr. Hall and Theodosia Tompkins Hall by Judge Tompkins, a friend of Abraham Lincoln. Hall Place was briefly a Civil War hospital until Dr. Hall and his family moved from the war-torn town in 1861. The troops continued to inhabit the house during a number of Civil War battles, including the famous battle of Christmas Day, which occurred in the Glasgow City Square.
