Lambda Chi Alpha IHQ 8741 Founders Day Road. North of Indianapolis.


What is surprising as I went through it one night late, it is not that big.

But, neither were the many that we passed by I was very surprised in this fact. While Pictures make them look huge, it is only an optical illusion. (Graceland would be a good example).

National HQs are a working facility and that is all. So why have more than we can afford?

Oh Yes, I understand Headquarter"s". Just wanted to see what was said!

LXA was one of the first to move there ah Indy I mean. It was always said because of Central Location. Wrong, it was for Tax purposes.

Would love to visit all of the NHQs if had a chance! Give respect for what has been done by so many to be where they are at.

Alpha Omicron Pi's International Headquarters is located in Brentwood, TN. Besides all of the normal offices, meeting and educational facilities, it houses the Fraternity library, archives and gallery (and the public displays are amazing, just ask Beryana about them!), our Emporium, and more.

Virtual tour online at http://www.alphaomicronpi.org/virtual/index.html

I lived in Indy for many years, and am familiar with most of the HQs there. A LOT of national non-profits and fraternal orgs are headquartered there because of Indiana's tax laws.

I used to live about six blocks away from my HQ (Phi Sigma Kappa) on 96th Street just west of Keystone.

I live close to Delta Tau Delta's offices. The location is on a major commuting route to some fast-growing suburbs. It's designed to really take advantage of the spot and get noticed by many eyes each day. The building is pretty and well-landscaped, the signage is easy to read, and the Delta Tau Delta flag is right there with the US and state flags. They're doing a great job of raising awareness of themselves in that location.

Our national HQ -- Lyrecrest -- is also in Indiana, but in Evansville. Aside from the tax laws, there are historical reasons we ended up there.

APO HQ

Alpha Phi Omega's headquarters are in Independence, MO. Our office had been located in various office buildings in nearby Kansas City, Mo since the 1930s. When we started to building a real building around 1986, we choice a site in Independence. Thanks to the efforts of 50 alumni (Fab 50), the 10 year morgage was paid off in around 5 years.

You can see a picture of it at our website: www.apo.org

I LOVE AOII's IHQ in Brentwood, TN! I have also been by the Chi Omega, PiKA, & KD Headquarters in Memphis, TN. All are very nice!

Beta Sigma Phi has made its home in Kansas City, MO.

What's so great about Headquarters?? They're wonderfully supportive of women wishing to establish new chapters. Beta Sigma Phi is ALWAYS open to expansion, and the International office makes the process very smooth and easy to understand.

I've never seen ADPi's EO, but I would love to visit someday!

Tri-Delta's HQ is in North Texas -- Arlington, I believe...I only know that b/c I live in the northern parts of Texas I've never seen it driving through Arlington, so I don't really know what it looks like.

Do you mean Evansville, Indiana or Evanston, Illinois?

Some days there just isn't enough caffeine in the world.

I meant Evansville, Indiana.

t*p, are you able to paste a photo of EO? I tried, but couldn't. I'd LOVE to show what it will look like after the renovation, but those pictures aren't available online.

Oh, for those of y'all who live in Atlanta, it's on Ponce de Leon Avenue, NW.

It is very nice from the outside, I got the "drive by" when I was in Arlington for a conference. That was out biggest beef attending the seminar. We were in Austin and there was no time scheduled to see the headquaters! Some people who had very late flights were able to see it, but I wasn't so lucky.
