The house was torn down by the new owners, but there are pictures in both the 1976 and 2000 history books.

I don't know if any other individual GLO has or has had anything like this. However, in both history books, there is mention of a Panhellenic House in NY. It was originally open only to Panhellenic members, but in 1932, the name was changed to Beekman Tower and opened to the public. The hotel was sold in 1964.

There are postcards out there on internet auction sites that have the photo of the home on them. It seems like a great idea to have a kappa retirement home or resort in Florida. I'd go!!

Thanks for the info. I'll have to hunt down a history book.

About when was it torn down? Shortly after it was sold by Kappa?

I imagine so. I don't remember the history books mentioning that date.

Hmmm, if we could have a place in sunny Florida or a place on the Upper East Side to visit? HQ shouldn't have sold!
