old house photos
awhile back one of our generous posters sent us all postcard photos of some GORGEOUS old fraternity houses, these mostly
from Amherst. The Psi U one, for example...to die for!
Some of the eastern schools built veritable mansions in days of
yore, before codes and unions and other things blocked the practice. These were almost all private schools with wealthy alumni. The state U's did not have that clout and wealth. Could
some of you display some more of these? They are somewhat a
wish-book, of halcyon days gone by...breath taking, and truly an
architect's dream...Occasionally, an old local which went national
had a mansion, of sorts, not built for greek usage, but re-done,
and is an example of fantastic, dream-world, living. How 'bout
some more? We can dream, can't we?
