Saint Anthony Hall

Saint Anthony Hall, 1894-1913
While the Yale College fraternities built tombs, Sheffield frats built residential houses, since Sheff didn't offer housing. Saint Anthony Hall's first home was an improbable Romanesque dollhouse to which a residential wing was later added. The building was razed when Frederick Vanderbilt gave money for a new St. A's designed to blend with the Sheffield dormitories he had funded on either side of the fraternity.
