Kappa Alpha Order's house was torn down........was a sad day  It looks weird too cuz now there is an empty lot in that row and it looks tacky. I hope they rebuild. {Though who knows where.....apparently the remaining houses in that block: Pi Kappa Alpha, Lambda Chi Alpha, FarmHouse, Phi Sigma Kappa, and Kappa Sigma are supposed to be torn down too. Rumor has it the reason is to "enhance the park like atmosphere of the William T. Young Library." Sigma Phi Epsilon has already seen this fate and a parking lot has been paved over their lot (A new house was rebuilt for them in a new location however, same as with Sigma Chi house). Alpha Tau Omega which is next door to the newly paved lot is supposed to suffer the same fate as well, as Alpha Gamma Rho.)
Delta Tau Delta's house is currently under a multi-million dollar renovation. They have a big house off campus.
Phi Delta Theta has no house because they just came there like a year or two ago (I've seen some of these guys walking around that campus and out and about..........very hot guys..........if only I was younger.........)
I believe Pi Kappa Phi has a dorm floor (or they did).
Didnt mean for this to be as long but I wanted to give the background info. for fraternity PNM's.

Doesn't Kappa Alpha have an "unofficial" house as well? A few high school buddies are KAs so I hear a lot about them. My understanding is that their housing corporation has been quite active and they are looking to buy or rent something soon.
I had also heard that Phi Delta Theta had one as well. But could easily be wrong regarding the Phi Delts.
I thought the Alpha Tau Omega house was new. The old one was near the old Sigma Phi Epsilon house on Clifton Circle, the present site of the Young Library. If so, I would be surprised if it was to be torn down. Then again, this is UK.
My freshman roommate at UK is a Delt and he gives me all kinds of grief about the renovation. I heard that it will be one of the largest Greek houses in the whole South. I'm so
thrilled for 'em.
As for the six-pack, my understanding is that they are to be torn down as well and rebuilt in the new Greek Park. The square block created by Rose Lane, Rose Street, Euclid Avenue and Woodland Avenue. Similar to the new Sigma Chi and Sigma Phi Epsilon houses. Same for Alpha Gamma Rho. However, I've also heard that UK may rebuild one or two new houses at the old six-pack site. Depends if, and how quick, UK can buy the land in the proposed Greek Park area.
I've also heard that some chapters might buy near or in the historical area near the Phi Kappa Tau house. More toward downtown Lexington.
Guess it was my turn to be long.
