University of Minnesota

At Minnesota, we have a "frat row" that is along University Avenue, facing the oldest part of our campus (~150 years old). Obviously, many houses have changed hands/ left/ taken over the house next door/ university moved into a former fraternity house/ etc in the past hundred-plus years, but thankfully many remain. This is where most of the fraternities are located.

Above is a picture from 1928. The campus would be on your left, with fraternity row on your right. You would be looking up University Avenue, with all the row fraternities on your right, including...
1800 block:
unoccupied (originally Zeta Psi and formerly Tau Kappa Epsilon)
Kappa Sigma (technically on a cross-street, = behind ZPsi/TKE)
Alpha Tau Omega
Sigma Alpha Epsilon
Omega Nu Alpha (local, originally Phi Kappa Sigma)
1700 block:
Alpha Delta Phi
Phi Sigma Kappa (technically on a cross-street, = behind ADPhi)
co-op (originally Psi Upsilon)
Delta Tau Delta
Delta Kappa Epsilon
1600 block:
Beta Theta Pi
Sigma Chi (original house)
Sigma Chi 2 (originally Chi Phi)
Phi Kappa Psi
Delta Chi
1500 block:
Sigma Nu
original Theta Chi house (technically on a cross-street, = behind Sigma Nu)
Chi Psi/Lodge

The sororities are in small clusters, about 8 blocks up University avenue from where the picture is taken. Some other fraternities are also located up there, farther from campus, but closer to the ladies Additional organizations that are located in this other, ~ 6 block area are:

fraternities
Delta Upsilon (originally Phi Delta Theta house)
Phi Gamma Delta (on Univeristy Ave)
Triangle (on University Ave)
Sigma Alpha Mu
Sigma Phi Epsilon
Kappa Alpha Psi (on University Ave)

sororities
on one block:
Alpha Chi Omega
Gamma Phi Beta
former Chi Omega house
Alpha Phi
Kappa Kappa Gamma
Kappa Kappa Gamma 2
across the street:
former Delta Delta Delta house
former Alpha Delta Pi house
former Kappa Alpha Theta house
on another block:
Alpha Gamma Delta
Delta Gamma
Kappa Alpha Theta
across the street:
Pi Beta Phi
Pi Beta Phi 2
Alpha Omicron Pi

(We also have Alpha Gamma Rho and Farmhouse, and two local, more agricultural-focused sororities, but they are all located in Saint Paul, near the ag campus)

I think that's pretty much everyone (besides locals, or others who have moved houses again!)
