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.
