Former Houses Demolished for Townhouse Construction

Sun., May 20, 1984

The former houses standing on the 300-block of West Louther Street were demolished immediately after graduation. The seven new townhouses were not quite complete when they were opened to students the following year, resulting in mixed emotions from new residents. "We are disappointed that we don't have closets and we can't hang anything on the walls yet," as one student explained. A second student expressed that she though the College "overextended itself with all their new projects. But they (townhouses) are very nice".
