Delta Upsilon Fraternity House

-A A +A
1929. 320 Ellis Ave.

The American eighteenth-century Georgian style is revived here in stone. A dignified two-story porch with a flat roof bearing a balustrade runs across the entire front of the building. There is another balustrade on the top of the main roof, set between pairs of chimneys that project above the end-wall gables.
