hall
Building's main artery
A hall is a corridor or passageway inside a building: The bathroom is down the hall on the left.
Hall also means a large room for gatherings—a concert hall, lecture hall, or dance hall.
In older or grander buildings, the hall is the main entrance room.
University buildings are often called halls: residence hall, dining hall.
A hall of fame honors distinguished people in a field. (Capitalized Hall is a surname.)
