The building, which opened in 1956,[1] is named for Reynolda, the country estate of the family of R. J. Reynolds, a prominent businessman in Winston-Salem. Reynolda is the Latin feminine for Reynolds, a naming convention aimed to recognize the role Katharine Smith Reynolds, wife of R. J., had in the development of the estate.[2]

Reynolda Hall contains a cafeteria (nicknamed The Pit), the Green Room study area, the Magnolia Room dining hall and administrative offices.[2]
