THE TABARD 1932 (SIGMA CHI HOUSE [III])
The 1893 Sigma Chi Fraternity, descended from the local Chandler School organization Phi Zeta Mu of 1857 (Richardson 1932, 497), built the house at 3 Webster Avenue in 1932. The organization's previous house on the same site, a 1912 wooden building, burned in September of 1931 (Barrett, 87). The brick replacement is also of two stories with a hipped roof and dormers and bears a porch at its east end; however the new building is rather Georgian where its precursor was Colonial. The entrance also moves to the east end of the longer brick building where it was in the center of the predecessor. The fraternity became the Tabard in 1960 (R.N. Hill, 234), taking the name of Chaucer's inn in Southwark. The organization went co-educational in the 1970s.

TANZI'S GROCERY STORE* 18XX (196X)
The local institution occupied a small building adjacent the now-Ledyard Bank Building to the south, on Main Street (Barrett, 1997 Town of Hanover calendar "Main Street")

TAVERN BLOCK* 1894 (1957)
Dorrance B. Currier had this wooden commercial block built on the north west corner of South Main and Maple Streets, now the location of the Fleet Bank Building. The block replaced the earlier South Hall which had burned in 1888. A restaurant on the ground floor of the block provided the building with its name; the A&P also had a shop on the ground floor. Upstairs were lodgers' rooms, and the building also housed at various times a furniture shop, upholsterer, and several other restaurants. The northern two shops added a brick addition to the rear at some time between 1894 and 1899. The Town demolished the building in 1957 to build a municipal parking lot on which the Fleet Bank Building later rose (Barrett, 37).

TEMPORARY DINING HALL* 1869 (1869)
The College built the wooden dining hall on the northern part of the Green to serve guests at the College Centennial. See also Tent.

TENT* 1869 (1869)
The College borrowed the large tent from Yale and erected it on the Green to accommodate orations during the College Centennial; the tent leaked and General Sherman is said to have noted that there was no hell like a Dartmouth Commencement. the Boston & Maine Railroad loaned thelocomotive lanterns that lit the tent. The College also borrowed tents from the Army and set them up behind Dartmouth Hall for visiting alumni, many of whom had gotten used to such tents only a few years before. See also Temporary Dining Hall.

THE TERRACE around 1897
The planned, landscaped shelf of land extends from Wilder Hall to Reed Hall and includes Wheeler, Richardson, Rollins and Dartmouth Row (Emerson 1900). The 1890s campus plans of College architect Charles Rich first laid out the scheme; Steele Hall later incorporated itself into this plan as well, following the pattern of Wheeler by creating another three-sided quadrangle facing College Street. The 1990s plans of Venturi, Scott Brown & Associates discern this parti and describe it as a series of "front lawns." Burke follows the pattern slightly, though Fairchild forces it to stand closer to the street than its predecessors the Medical School and Nathan Smith, which had previously extended the Terrace up to Maynard Street.

THAYER DINING HALL 1937
Jens Frederick Larson designed the building to face the street known as Massachusetts Row west of the Green. One of his proposals, however, shows the familiar triumphal-arch entrance facade of the building looking northward up the center of the street as Thayer connects to the rear of Robinson Hall (Box DC Hist Iconong 456 proposed buildings never built).

The building contains a number of discrete dining rooms. The conference room/dining room in the southeast corner of the building displays painted leather paneling on its walls and ceiling. The pub in the basement began as the Rathskeller, on whose walls Walter Beach Humphrey '14 painted the Hovey Murals as a jovially traditional response to the Orozco Frescos. The Rathskeller later become the Hovey Grill and began serving alcohol; the College covered the murals between 1979 and 1993, except during Commencement and Dartmouth Night Weekend. In 1993 the College planned to turn the room into a museum. The main dining hall occupies the northern half of the building for much of its length and reaches two stories high, with open trusses. The second-floor balcony at the east end presumably held musicians as the similar balcony in College Hall's Commons had. This dining hall was one of two mess halls the Navy used during W.W.II (Navy at Dartmouth, 1944). In 1951 freshman commons moved here from College Hall (Widmayer 1991, 69); until 1966 this room remained the required dining room of all freshmen . The room has seen a number of different configurations, including a c.1995 reworking that replaced the west-east cafeteria line with a number of distinct serving areas under red awnings. The smaller dining room at the west end of the building has its own entrance and by the early 1990s had become Home Plate. The third dining room, known at that time as A La Carte, is a 1984 addition to the south of the building. Previous additions or remodelings occurred in 1956 and 1977. Thayer also connects to the basement of the Collis Center by tunnel; on the third floor is a small convenience store known by 1991 as Topside.

THAYER LODGE 1888-1889 (THAYER SCHOOL [OF CIVIL ENGINEERING] BUILDING) (GOVERNMENT EXPERIMENT STATION)
The Hatch Act allowed for the $7,000 state appropriation that built this agricultural experiment station at 9 South Park Street opposite the state farm. The farm on which the New Hampshire College of Agriculture and the Mechanic Arts experimented is now the site of Memorial Field; the experiment station is now a house. When N.H.C. went to Durham in 1892 Dartmouth bought the farm and the Thayer School bought and refitted the experiment station for $3417 (Richardson 1932, 735). The Thayer School had presumably stayed in its original home in the first floor of Thornton since it began in 1867. The school renamed the building Thayer Lodge and continued to use it until 1912 (From Dartmouth 1971, 19), when it moved to the former Bissell Gymnasium on the Green. From there it moved in 1939 to its current home in Cummings Hall. Thayer Lodge remains a house and now bears a porch and shutters . The sides of the front window arches have been bricked in to make them square.

THETA CHI HOUSE* (I) by 1852 (c.1934)
Confectioner E.K. Smith built a trio of buildings on North Main Street to house his candy business.: only the N.A.D. House (II) survives, but the Theta Chi House was one of them. It stood at 33 North Main Street, between the other two buildings, until the fraternity replaced it with the current Alpha Theta House. Smith built the house as a candy shop, while he lived to the south and conducted his manufacturing to the north. Later owners made the building into a dwelling (J.K. Lord 1928, 34), with J. V. Hazen owning the house by 1905. The 1921 Theta Chi Fraternity later occupied the building; the furnace leaked carbon monoxide in 1934, killing nine sleeping fraternity members in the worst human tragedy at Dartmouth (Widmayer 1977, 196). The society subsequently replaced the house with the current brick-ended wooden building.

THETA DELTA CHI HOUSE* (II) c.1827 (1925)
Elam Markham had his two-story wooden house built on the north side of West Wheelock Street at no. 11, adjacent today's St. Thomas Episcopal Church (Barrett, 19). The College had originally given Eleazar Wheelock the land for a garden in 1778. The long dimension of the house ran parallel to the street, and by the turn of the century a porch wrapped around the front and west side of the house. Subsequent owners included Caleb Fuller, Jonathan Freeman, Elijah Smalley in 1855, then Daniel Richardson, and Professor M.D. Bisbee by 1905. The 1869 theta Delta Chi Fraternity bought the house from Bisbee in 1908 and altered it in 1909 (Barrett, 19), possibly adding a two-story section to the west that appears in postcard views. The house burned in 1924 and the fraternity replaced it in 1925 (J.K. Lord 1928, 66).

THETA DELTA CHI HOUSE (III) 1925-6
Putnam and Chandler of Boston designed the fraternity's replacement building in brick, this time orienting its long direction perpendicular to the street and placing its entrance on the east side. The fraternity dedicated the building in the fall of 1926 (Barrett, 19). The three-story biulding has a symmetrical five-bay entrance facade and presents a one-story porch to the street at no. 11 West Wheelock.

THOMPSON ICE ARENA AND AUDITORIUM 1975
Pier Luigi Nervi provided the engineering work and again teamed up with designers Campbell and Aldrich to build Thompson Arena, as he had for Leverone Field House of a dozen years earlier (Hunt, 34). The hockey arena faces Leverone across South Park Street, though it stands half-sunken behind a row of houses and is often invisible from the street. The building bears the name of Trustee Rupert (Robert?) C. Thompson Jr. '28 of Providence (From Dartmouth 1973-4, 34). Thompson also houses commencement ceremonies in rainy weather, as well as the Grateful Dead's Hanover concert.

THORNTON HALL 1828-1829
The College built Thornton as a dormitory to the designs of Ammi Burhnam Young. Young's rejected drawings for Thornton and its companion Wentworth featured relieved brick arcades (Tolles) but the College went with the simpler design that exists today. The hall occupies the site of the 1790 Chapel, which the College moved, but stands somewhat farther back and closer to the front line of Dartmouth Hall. The building continued to house students on all three floors at least through 1905 and later on just the top two floors, probably continuing into the 1920s. The building also held the Gallery of Paintings from 1829 to 1840 when the Gallery moved to Reed (Baas, 14). Thornton appears in early illustrations as unpainted, bare brick. The College first whitewashed the building in 1859 (Richardson 1932, 415). Richard Hovey 1895 lived in the top northeast corner room (Hovey). The College entirely reconstructed the building in 1924 for $66,000 (Richardson 1932, 775); now the hall functions as a classroom and office building.

-TIP-TOP HOUSE* 18XX (19XX)
The frame building stood atop Mt. Washington surrounded by a high stone foundation wall.

TONTINE BUILDING* 1813-15 (1887) (PSI UPSILON HALL [I], DELTA KAPPA UPSILON HALL [II], SPHINX HALL [I], PHI DELTA THETA HALL [I], VITRUVIAN HALL)
The brick block stood fourth down on the east side of Main Street where the Bridgman Block (East) now stands. The block was the first such commercial building in the Town and was fraught with problems in construction. The building housed students' rooms, with the College dormitory capacity being limited to Dartmouth Hall and Commons (J.K. Lord 1928, 40). The building seems to have been a white elephant and the College rejected the building when it was offered as a gift. "Rooms of the two upper stories, being in little demand for other purposes, were gradually transformed for the most part into halls for undergraduate societies by removing the upper floor in several of the sections and throwing the two upper stories into one. The first hall thus constructed was that of the Psi Upsilon, at the south end of the building about 1860." The halls of Delta Kappa Epsilon; Phi Zeta Mu, today's Tabard; Vitruvian, today's Beta Theta Pi; Phi Delta Theta; and Sphinx followed. The building burned in the Main Street Fire of 4 January 1887 and the eastern Bridgman Block and the Currier Block occupied its site.

TOPLIFF HALL 1920
J.F. Larson designed the hall that the College named for Elijah M. Topliff, 1852, who had earlier left money to the College (Widmayer 1977, 50). The building cost $355,000 (Richardson 1932, 776). The existence of two sizes of rooms stems from the College's determination to place affluent students next to those of more limited means; College built the dormitory to handle the postwar boom in admissions and it was the largest dormitory on the campus at the time it went up. The hall cost of 62.5 cents per cubic foot and has floors of reinforced concrete floors with a maple surface (American Architect, 20 May 1925). Theodor Seuss Geisel '25 lived in room 416 his freshman year, and Louise Erdrich '76 lived in 303 her first year (Jacob). Topliff operated as the ship "U.S.S. Topliff" as one of the ten Navy V-12 dormitories that sailors occupied during W.W.II (Navy 1944). The College renovated the building and divided it into two units in 1958 (Widmayer 1991, 108). The hall held 182 in 50 singles and 66 doubles in 1961 (Office of the Bursar), and it held 172 in 122 singles, 25 doubles and 7 singles in 1990 (ORL). The College remodeled again in 1986 by adding the kitchen. Topliff today forms part of a cluster with New Hampshire Hall, which the Class of 1947 sponsors (ORL).

TOY TOWN 1922
The College built the ten houses on East Wheelock Street and Dana Street, which it opened for that purpose. The land on which the buildings stand was once part of Agricultural College farm, after which John M. Fuller, A.A. Plummer and Stephen Chase owned it. The College bought the land in 1921. The College sold the houses to College officers and built other houses on East Wheelock and Balch Streets (J.K. Lord 1928, 68) In 1928 the College still owned three on Balch Street.

THE TROUGH 18XX
The trough now rests in front of Webster Cottage on North Main Street, though it stood from at least the end of the nineteenth century on the southwest corner of the Green, facing East Wheelock Street. The horse watering trough is hewn from a solid block of granite and has a second smaller basin for dogs; it is the "Terrible Trough" of freshman-frightening literature. Traffic congestion likely caused workers to move the trough to its new site at some time before 1961 (Stebbins 1961, 125).

TUCK DRIVE 1914
Edward Tuck, benefactor of the Tuck School, gave the funds that created the Tuck Drive. The College opened the road in 1914 through the ravine earlier known as "Webster's Vale" and later as "Hitchcock Vale" since it formed part of the Hitchcock Estate. The College received the Estate in 1912 and saw an opportunity to provide a new automobile access route to the campus that would avoid the unsightly and barren hill of West Wheelock Street. The Drive connects West Wheelock Street at the Ledyard Bridge to North Main Street at Baker Library, with a branch joining Webster Avenue at Phi Delta Alpha. The Lane Company built the Drive, with labor provided by forty Italian workers who lived in a temporary shanty on the bluff southwest of Aquinas House and Webster Avenue (The Dartmouth v35 May 2, 1914, 3). The east end of the Drive originally followed the 1864 driveway of the old Hitchcock Mansion, running directly in front of Hitchcock Hall and then curving immediately after the building to meet the short street that still joins it to Webster Avenue. The College later shifted the road to center on Baker Library and extended it all the way to the professional schools at the end of Tuck Mall, which did not gain its second building until Sage in 1923.

TUCK HALL (II) 1930
Jens Larson designed the central building of the Tuck School of Business to contain offices and classrooms: on either side of the building are Chase and Woodbury Houses. The College remodeled the building in 1974. Benefactor Edward Tuck 1862 named the 1900 School after his father Amos Tuck 1835.

TUCK MALL 1913-
Emily Howe Hitchcock left the Hitchcock Estate to the College in 1912, and in 1913 the College built the Hitchcock dormitory on a corner of the tract. The following year the College used funds from Edward Tuck to build an automobile drive that connected North Main Street with West Wheelock at the River; this drive formed the armature around which the College later assembled Tuck Mall. Crosby Hall/Blunt already stood on the south side of the Mall, but the next building did not arrive on the Mall until the 1920s. The designs for the Library foreshadowed the axis that the Mall would follow: Russell Sage mirrored Hitchcock in 1923, and seven more buildings followed in 1927-29 including the Gold Coast, the Baker complex and Silsby. The Tuck School arrived in 1930 and Cummings and Butterfield in 1939-40. Butterfield does not parallel the Mall because it reflects a 1920s planning idea of building dormitories behind the Webster Avenue fraternities parallel to that street. Buchanan arrived in 1968 with a subdued presence behind the trees that had grown up on the Mall. Though Larson includes a Greek theater sunken into the hillside as the termination of the mall in his master plans, the mall had no built end until the Murdough Center arrived in 1973.

TUCK MALL DORM ca. 2006
The College hired Atkin, Lawson, Olson-Bell to design the dormitory in February 2001 (Gomstyn, O'Brien). The building will occupy the north side of Tuck Mall, west of Butterfield Hall. The building will occupy a former junction of two branches of Tuck Drive, those leading out of the vale to Webster Avenue and Main Street. The building is an outgrowth of the January 2000 call of the Student Life Initiative for changes to residential life and for more on-campus housing as well as ongoing "decompression" of existing rooms and its requirement for new living space. The dormitory will have double and single rooms, a lounge and kitchen on each level, and a central community space (Gomstyn) that will be a place for student parties that can get "dirty."

TUCK OVAL
The circular drive ends Tuck Mall in front of the Tuck School. Unusual cycle races take place here annually.

TUCKER DEAN'S HOUSE 1950
The College provides this house for the current Dean of the Tucker Foundation (Facilities).

U

UNDERGROUND STREAM
A brook appears on the early map of the College that appears in Chase's history running behind Wilson Hall. The stream or its relative served the original College well on College Street (Graham 1991, 80). A stream still runs underground east of Reed Hall and under the Hopkins Center and the Hood, draining into Mink Brook at the bottom of the hill, still audible under Faulkner Auditorium according to rumor. The Hop stands on piles to deal with the marshy land, though designers of the Hood gave it an ordinary slab foundation. The site of the College Gas Works that the Heating Plant later occupied also seemed to be marshy ground.

UNITY HOUSE 1795 (CHI PHI HOUSE [I]) (PROFESSOR BROWN HOUSE)
Richard Lang had the building built on the corner of Wheelock and Main where Collis stands today. The College had originally granted the land to the carpenter Comfort Sever in 1772, and Sever built a house north of the corner. The property went to Dr. George Eager and then Lang, who also had Lang Hall and Elm House (b) built elsewhere. This large wooden building faced south (Bartlett) and contained a store and had a meeting hall on the second floor. Lang intended to relocate his business here from the corner by Webster Hall in order to compete with the merchant Graves, who had a store south of the C&G House. But Graves's business failed, and Lang turned his building into a house around 1797, before workers had finished it (J.K. Lord 1928, 25). Later Lang's son-in-law C.B. Haddock owned the building, and then Mrs. L.C. Dickinson, as well as possibly someone named Smith (Bartlett). Professor Samuel G. Brown, who left in 1867 to become president of Hamilton College, owned the building, as did the Savings Bank (J.K. Lord 1928, 47), and Adna P. Balch. Planning to build his mansion on the corner, Balch sold the house in 1875 to William H. Gibbs, a tailor, who began to move it but fell on hard times. Gibbs sold the house to Dr. Carleton P. Frost, who moved the house to 11 East Wheelock Street. Frost later added a third story with mansard roof, an ornate porch and dark paint. The building also gained a barn by 1904, which departed at some time between 1912 and 1922. Frost's heirs sold the house to the Chi Phi Fraternity in 1903 (J.M. Lord, 108). By the mid-1920s the organization planned to replace the building, and in 1927 Mrs. Claude A. Palmer of California bought the house for the cost of moving it to 23 South Park Street. The organization built a new brick house, today the Chi Heorot House; the College soon bought Unity House (J.M. Lord, 107).

-UNIVERSITY PRESS OF NEW ENGLAND WAREHOUSE 1974
The warehouse on Lyme Road serves the press, which is a consortium of school presses that formed in 1971 (From Dartmouth, 1971).

V

JAMES D. VAIL MEDICAL SCIENCES BUILDING 1971-1973
The eight-story Medical School building contains labs, classrooms and offices and connects to Chilcott Auditorium and Remsen (From Dartmouth 1972, 3).

VALE OF TEMPE (POTASH HOLLOW)
Greek scholar Alpheus Crosby reputedly named the Vale, later the scene of Christie Warden's murder and the site of Ski Jump (Morrison, 67). Lyme Road crosses the Vale on a high fill just north of the campus.

VESTRY* 1841 (1931)
The vestry stood west of the College Church on Wentworth Street, today the lawn in front of Sanborn House. Mills Olcott, who had bought the land in 1834 from David Hinckley's estate, donated the plot to the church (J.K. Lord 1928, 51). The vestry stood on or nearly on the site of the College Barn and south of the site of a house that Samuel G. Mackery had used in 1795 as his drug store (J.K. Lord 1928, 30) (see College Barn). Students called the vestry "the calf" to the church's "cow" (Williams, 216). Workers demolished the vestry after the Church burned in 1931 and the congregation moved to College Street (Richardson 1932).

W

WASH HOUSE* 1772 (18XX)
Wheelock directed that workers build the wash house (R.N. Hill, 35) in the summer of 1772 (Chase, 257). The building stood near the little brook south of what is now Lebanon Street, Chase supposes, below the potash house. The building appears around 15 Lebanon Street in a 1775 plan of Hanover (Chase, 229).

WEBSTER AVENUE 1896 (FRATERNITY ROW) (GREEK ROW)
The College opened Webster Avenue in 1896 to provide housing for the growing faculty, including those whom the College's expansion around the Green displaced. The street occupies the southern part of the old Morse Farm, and the College laid it out so far to the south that no construction could take place on the south side of the street until the College acquired the Hitchcock Estate in 1912. Thus all of the buildings on the north side of the street predate those on the south side, though two houses did stand on the south side of the street at one time: 4 Webster Avenue was a house the College moved there by 1912 and demolished for Beta Theta Pi c.1931. It housed the Dartmouth Eye Institute. Webster Cottage also stood on the corner of Main Street, and the College moved it in 1928. Seven houses now stand on the north side and five on the south.

The street originally jogged over a length of about 150 feet before it met North Main Street, angling northward to parallel Tuck Drive and cutting through what is now the Kappa Kappa Kappa property. The College straightened things c.1922 before the fraternity built its house.

The access drive behind the houses on the south side of the street first appears on maps of 1927 and accesses the new President's House as well as the c.1925 fraternities along the street. The 1920s John Russell Pope master plans for the campus bore this feature in the form of a grassy mall wider than Webster Avenue itself. The College projeted a new range of dormitories to face the fraternities from the south. As it was built, the drive turned south behind Russell Sage and connected with the street called Mass Row. The only remnants of the drive are the paved walk behind the south-side fraternities and the parking lot behind the Beta Theta Pi House; now the organizations park their cars on the front lawns. Rockefeller Hall in 1985 connected Mass Row straight to Webster Avenue in the form of a pedestrian path, cutting off the connection to the old access drive.

WEBSTER COTTAGE 1780
The Reverend Sylvanus Ripley had this small farmhouse built at 24 North Main Street, facing the west end of the later Elm Street, on land that the Rockefeller Center occupies today. Eleazar Wheelock had given the land to his daughter Abigail when she married Ripley in 1774, and Wheelock's estate added more land when he died in 1779. Ripley built a new house facing the Green, the Choate House, in 1786 and the family moved there. After Ripley died in 1794 his widow returned to the house; it was during her ownership that senior Daniel Webster is reputed, by oral tradition, to have lived in a south chamber under the roof during 1800-01 (J.M. Lord, 103). Abigail Ripley's son-in-law Juda Dana of Fryeburg, Me. bought the house in 1802, and another son-in-law acquired it in 1806. Thence the house went to Mr. Baylies of Woodstock, then to Simeon Dewey the next year. Henry Wells Smith, founder of Wellesley as Henry Fowle Durant, was born in the house in 1822 (Graham 1990, 115). Miss L.J. McMurphy owned the house for a long period (J.K. Lord 1928, 50) up to the turn of the century. The College bought the building in 1900 and in 1902 rented it to professor P.O. Skinner and his wife Alice Van Leer Carrick, who wrote The Next-To-Nothing House about the cottage and its antiques collection in 1922. The College moved the building in 1928 to a south-facing site at 27B North Main Street opposite the Gamma Delta Chi House. Now the house faced the Choate House, the other Ripley dwelling. The College moved the house again c.1966 to the site in front of Cutter Hall where it now stands, again facing the Choate House. The building soon housed the Hanover Historical Society. The c.1997 faculty residence that the College attached to Cutter/Shabazz stands in line with Webster Cottage and follows its appearance.

WEBSTER HALL 1901; 1906-07 (NUGGET THEATER [II]) (RAUNER [SPECIAL COLLECTIONS] LIBRARY)
Charles Rich designed this auditorium and memorial building that now houses the Rauner Special Collections Library. It cost $150,000 (Emerson, 53) and stands on the site of the Rood House and Lang Hall. The firm of Lamb & Rich planned the building in 1895 and included an ornate domed version of it in their Quadrangle scheme that appeared in print that year. Lewis Addison Armistead of Boston, great-grandson of Webster, laid the cornerstone for a much-reduced and domeless building in 1901 in connection with the Webster Centennial (Qiunt, 212). The College did not get beyond the foundation, however.

After a pause of several years and several more designs by Rich, the College embarked on a slightly longer building in 1906. The money that alumni donated after the Dartmouth Hall Fire of 1904 helped to restart the project. The completed building is the most Classical at the College and has a quadristyle temple front of Corinthian columns of Indiana limestone in antis. The building is still a red-brick structure however, and is much more akin to the contemporary buildings of Administration Row, or Rich's John M. Greene Hall at Smith College, than the yellow brick of Rich's 1895 Butterfield Museum.

The building's entrance portico includes tablets dedicated to Dartmothians who died in the Civil War, and the planners intended the apse of the building as well as its walls to house portraits of alumni. Commencement ceremonies took place in the hall from 1908 to 1931. The College used the building as a temporary Nugget Theater for five years after the Nugget burned in 1944. The College saw numerous performances here, from John Philip Sousa's band to Phish. The College remodeled the building in 1974 and removed its fixed floor seats in 1987.

Venturi Scott Brown and Associates designed the 1998-9 project that converted the hall to a library: a sealed building-within-a-building "jewel box" now occupies the northern half of the interior and the Class of 1965 Balconies provide study areas, now free of their seating risers. A tunnel connects the building to the basement of Baker Library and holds the compacting stacks (Cronenwett).

WEBSTER TERRACE 1919
Four houses built by the College (J.K. Lord 1928, 69).

WELL* (I) 1770
First well of the College, dug west of what is now the southwest corner of Reed Hall, directly under the sidewalk (J.K. Lord 1928, 76) to replace two deep wells and perhaps five others that gave no water north of what is now Russell Sage (or Silsby--22, 34) near where the Log Hut was first located (Brown, 17). Still in use in 1870s (Bartlett).

WELL* (II) 1776 or 7
Well on the Green two rods northeast of Commons Hall, dug when that building (the President's House) became Commons, supplied the College pump (mentioned as still used in 1891) (Chase, 223).

WENTWORTH HALL 1828-1829
Ammi Burnham Young, designer of Thornton, Reed and Shattuck and later Supervising Architect of the Treasury, designed Wentworth Hall. Young's early drawings show the building with an arcaded facade (Tolles), but the version that exists is considerably simpler. The College built Wentworth as a dormitory, and it continued in that role until 1912. The hall had a reputation for attracting noisy students in the early years (Richardson 1932, 415). Robert Frost '96 lived in the top room on the southeast corner of the building during the few months of his freshman year that he was at Dartmouth (Graham 1990, 24).

The College whitewashed the building in 1859 to match Reed, which was whitewashed at its 1840 construction, and Dartmouth Hall (Richardson 1932, 415). The College completely reconstructed the hall in 1912 to the designs of Charles Rich: the north gable reflects the move of the entrance from the west to the south wall, and it also reflects the entirely new staircase that runs north-south or perpendicular to the original. Lecture rooms and offices replaced students' rooms. At the top of the staircase Rich insterted a stained-glass skylight and removed material to expose an original roof truss, embellishing it with iron strapwork. The College also remodeled the hall in 1963 and created a new second-floor landing vestibule in 1997. Wentworth continues as a classroom and office building and houses the foreign study programs offices.

WENTWORTH STREET 17XX (CHURCH STREET)
The street was once home to the 1795 College Church; at some time the street took the name of John Wentworth, Royal Governor of N.H. and friend to Wheelock and the College (Morrison, 57). The Church burned in 1931.

WEST STREET 1904
The Town extended Maple Street westward in 1904 and created West Street to connect it to West Wheelock Street (Morrison, 56).

WEST WHEELOCK STREET 177X (RIVER STREET) (DEPOT STREET)
The street runs westward from the Green to Ledyard Bridge and thence to Vermont, first the former town of Lewiston with its railroad station and then Norwich. The street earlier bore the name River Street, but had acquired its current name by 1879.

WEST WHEELOCK STREET APARTMENTS 1962
The Modernist complex houses College staff (R.N. Hill, 332).

WHEELER HALL 1905
Charles Rich designed the dormitory on the Terrace to form a three-sided quadrangle with Richardson Hall and Rollins Chapel. Wheeler cost $83,135 to build (Richardson 1932, 677). The College had to move Rowley Hall to build the building, and it stands near the sites of a number of earlier buildings, including a house that moved before 1860 to 52 College Street, the Malt House in two locations to the south between 1784 and 1829, and the former John Payne Tavern. The hall held 98 in 1905 (Richardson 1932, 677); by 1961 it held held 113 in 23 singles, 26 doubles, and 13 triples (Office of the Bursar); in 1990 it held 105 in 21 singles, 24 doubles and 12 triples in 1990 (ORL). The hall became a barracks in 1918 (R.N. Hill, 241). John Sloan Dickey roomed in Wheeler his junior year of 1927-28 (Widmayer 1991, 16). The College remodeled the building extensively in 1928-30 (Office of the Bursar). Wheeler became one of the three dormitories the College occupied during its lowest ebb in 1943, with Richardson and Crosby/Blunt being the other two (Widmayer 1977, 277). The building featured in a 1974 Pepsi commercial set during Carnival (Rose). The College remodeled the building in 1988 to cooking, computer, study and multipurpose rooms (ORL).

WHEELOCK MANSION HOUSE 1773 (PRESIDENT'S HOUSE [I]) (LIBRARY [III]) (HOWE LIBRARY [I])
Eleazar Wheelock had Hezekiah Davenport build the Mansion House on the hill where Reed Hall now stands (Chase, 269); today the building, much altered, stands opposite the Psi Upsilon House on West Wheelock Street. It is the oldest documented structure in the Town of Hanover, and Presidents Eleazar Wheelock, John Wheelock, Allen of Dartmouth University, Tyler, and for a short time Lord lived in the house (Emerson 1900).

Trustee John Thornton in London provided the funds for fourteen men to construct the building (R.N. Hill, 35). While Wheelock lived in the house it also functioned as the College Library. A brass sundial also stood in the front yard (Chase, 289). Otis R. Freeman bought the house for $525 and moved it to 4 West Wheelock Street in 1838 (Graham 1990, 36). Later owner Adna P. Balch had the gambrel roof changed to a sharp A along with other modernizations in 1846 (J.K. Lord 1928, 65). The house remained a residence until 1900, Mrs. Emily Howe Hitchcock donated it to the town to become a library. The Town altered the building to serve this function in 1900 and added the brick stacks to the rear in 1912 (Barrett, 18). The house retains a lot of "excellent interior detailing reminiscent of similar period buildings in Connecticut, from where its builders came" (Barrett, Town of Hanover calendar Main Street, date unknown). The house became a shop when Howe moved to new location at South College and East South Streets in 1975, and by the early 1990s it contained Roberts Flowers & Gifts.

WHITAKER APARTMENT between 1928 and 1929
Jens F. Larson designed the faculty housing at 4 North Park Street in a traditional C-shape; it appeared in Larson's treatise on college architecture.

WHITE CHURCH (II) 1935 (CHURCH OF CHRIST AT DARTMOUTH COLLEGE) (Parish House is ALPHA CHI RHO HOUSE [I])
The Church of Christ at Dartmouth College and its adjoining Parish House stand north of the Sigma Alpha Epsilon House at around 40 College Street. Hobart Upjohn of New York with Wells, Hudson and Granger of Hanover designed the building and gave it a spire of 125 feet (Williams, 219). The congregation came to this location from the 1795 College Church, which burned in 1931, after the College provided the land (Barrett, 104).
The Parish House is the former Alpha Chi Rho house was probably built at some time between 1912 and 1922. It stands at what was once numbered 40 College Street, approximately on the site of a barn belonging to the house on the corner of College and Elm, a house that Sigma Alpha Epsilon Fraternity would later buy and replace with their current house.

WHITTEMORE HALL 1999-2000
The Tuck School dormitory will stand behind Murdough Hall and was designed by Goody Clancy Architects.

WIGWAM CIRCLE* 1945-6 (by 1958)
Most colleges in the U.S. saw a glut of veterans returning to school when the Second World War ended, many of them married and most using the G.I. Bill. Dartmouth struggled to house its veterans and placed many of them in a cluster of temporary buildings behind the Thayer Engineering School. The Federal Housing Development Agency helped fund the project, which was ready in late November of 1946 after material and labor shortages caused a delay (Widmayer 1991, 35). The Circle had 200 units of housing, mostly for married students and their families (Widmayer 1991, 25). The complex appears on a 1950 map as a circle of long rectangular housing units surrounded by one and sometimes two rows of similar units. Wigwam stretched from the site of today's River Cluster all the way to the Thayer School parking lot by the Cemetery, including the sites of Maxwell and Channing Cox. The College demolished the housing after growth had subsided and it had built permanent replacements elsewhere, including the 1958 and 1962 Sachem Village. The three buildings of the 1958-62 River Cluster originally bore the names North, Middle and South Wigwam in reference to the postwar housing that had originally stood on this site.

WILDER DAM 1950
The dam holds back the Connecticut River south of Hanover and creates Wilder Lake in the vicinity of Hanover, a.k.a. the Connecticut River (R.N. Hill, 286) (Waterman, 28).

WILDER HALL 1897-1899 (WILDER LABORATORY)
Mr. Charles T. Wilder of Olcott, now Wilder, Vt. gave the funds for the physical laboratory (Emerson 1900). The building cost $84,000 (Richardson 1932, 679). Campus architect Charles Alonzo Rich designed the hall in a style and form similar to the one he gave his contemporary Milbank Hall at Barnard College. The original building was 107 feet long and 52 feet deep and held labs, offices and recitation rooms in three floors and a basement (Emerson 1900). The lecture-room projection in the rear measured 34 by 55 feet. Wilder was the site of first Dartmouth radio broadcast in 1925. The first words of WDCH on the air were "Shut the goddam door!" (DAM September 1993, 88). The College remodeled the building and added the southern wing in the 1948-49 year (Widmayer 1991, 55). Workers finished the north wing in 1951 (Widmayer 1991, 69). Another remodeling occurred in 1958 (R.N. Hill, 332 ) and the College modernized the labs in 1964 (Studio Art 67). The concrete tower of the 1974 Fairchild Physical Sciences Center now connects to Wilder's northern wing. A 1998-99 addition will allow the College to shuffle in new departments in order to demolish Bradley-Gerry to make room for Carson Hall in the Baker complex.

WILSON HALL 1884-1885 (LIBRARY [VI]) (MUSEUM)
Samuel J.F. Thayer of Boston designed Wilson Hall, the first library building of the College. The Agriculture School leased to the College the land on which the building stands. George F. Wilson of Providence R. I. followied the suggestion of his legal adviser, Hon. Halsey J. Boardman 1858 (Emerson 1900), and donated the building to Dartmouth at a cost of $67,600 (Richardson 1932, 619). Wilson also donated a Wilson Hall for Brown University. Designer Fredrick T. Langzettel, who was working for Louis Comfort Tiffany & Co. and Lewis F. Perry Decorator and Designer in Boston at the time, noted in a journal that he finished drawings for Wilson Hall interior architectural elements in 1884 (Lynn Langzettel Nevatt, correspondence 7 August 2000). The College dedicated the building on same day as Rollins Chapel in 1885 (J.K. Lord 1913, 421). The building stands at the corner of College and East Wheelock Streets facing westward down East Wheelock. This location was previously the site of the 1785 Laban Gates House, which the College bought and moved to its current location at South Main and East South opposite the Foodstop. Wilson also stands just behind or on the site of the original Wheelock Garden (J.K. Lord 1928, 64).

Wilson Hall's four main components express themselves in the massing of the building: the four-level cast-iron book stacks and their staircases (Emerson 1900) occupied the room that forms the southern half of the building. The smaller pentagonal room close to Wheelock Street was a double-height reading room. Another reading room stood at the rear of the building, and above it on the second floor was the reference library. The College's Picture Gallery occupied the eaves above the stacks. The 1841 Northern Academy of Arts and Sciences (Smith, 161) occupied the rear basement room (American Architect and Building News, 11 May 1885).

The College remodeled the building to house the College museum and anthropology department in 1928 when the library moved to Baker. This function continued until 1984 when the Hood Museum opened (Studio Art 67). Charles Moore's firm remodeled the building in 1984 in conjunction with the adjoining Hood: the cylindrical entrance baffle is the most prominent interior alteration. Now the building holds offices, classrooms, a practice hall, film studios and the film studies department.

WOODBURY HOUSE 1930
Jens Larson designed the Tuck School dormitory to connect to the contemporary Tuck Hall to the west. The later Buchanan also adjoins the hall to the east. The dormitory bears the name of Secretary of the Treasury Levi Woodbury (Richardson 1932, 776). The buildling originally had racquetball courts in the basement which the School removed c.1995. The hall held 51 in 13 singles and 18 doubles in 1961 (Office of the Bursar).

WOODWARD HOUSE* 1771 (1833 or 4) (LIBRARY [I])
Professor Bezaleel Woodward had the house built at what is now the east entrance to Baker Library on land the College had granted him. Woodward was the College Librarian and his house housed the College Library at least through 1775 (Chase, 289), the collection that the Woodward Room of Baker Library now preserves. Belknap described the collection itself in 1774: "It is not large, but there are some very good books in it" (Chase, 289). Gen. James Poole bought the building in 1808 and moved in, minding his store across the street , the Haskell House. Poole died in 1828; later the house burned. Abigail Dewey built a house on the site in 1842 (J.K. Lord 1928, 52).

ZAHM MEMORIAL GARDEN 1962?
The carefully-maintained garden lies below street level surrounding the northwest entrance of the Hopkins Center.

ZETA PSI HOUSE 1925
Larson & Wells designed the house for the 1920 Zeta Psi Fraternity ("The work of Larson and Wells 1919-1924"). The house stands at 8 Webster Avenue. The organization began in 1853 but lapsed between 1863-71 and 1873-1920 (Richardson 1932, 497/561/796).

ZIMMERMAN HALL 1985-1987
Zimmerman is the northeastern of the three dormitories in the East Wheelock Cluster or New Dorms that Herbert S. Newman Associates designed (Pearson). The hall adjoins Brace Commons which the similar Andres shares from the west, and in some aspects the cluster follows the model of the Harvard houses or the Yale residential colleges. The building uses suite configurations and held 84 students in 50 singles and 17 doubles in 1990. The hall also contains an Area Director's apartment (ORL). The Class of 1943 sponsors the cluster.

BUILDINGS KNOWN BY STREET NUMBERS

1 NORTH PARK STREET 1884
Professor Charles H. Pettee of the Agricultural College had this house built as the first one to occupy Park Street (J.K. Lord 1928, 67). C.D. Adams owned the building in 1905 and 1931, and the College owns it today.

1 ROPE FERRY ROAD 1937 (OLD CLINIC) (HITCHCOCK CLINIC)
Jens Larson designed the home of the 1927 Hitchcock Clinic staff adjoining the Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital to the west. The College bought the building when the Hospital and Clinic moved to the new D.H.M.C., and in 1993 demolished the 1950s addition that connected the building to A&B Ward. The area is now a landscaped quad. Now that it houses the College Gifts program and other offices, the College has renamed the building 1 Rope Ferry Road.

2,4 COLLEGE STREET* c.1891 (1962)
F. W. Davison had the house built on the site of one that Grove owned by by 1855 but that burned in 1891 (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). Davison still owned the house by 1905, with A.W. Guyer and C.H. Dudley living in 2 and 4 respectively. E. Coalz and Mrs. F.A. Whittemore occupied the building by 1928 and the College owned it by 1931 when Otto Schneibs and H.R. Childs were renters. The building still stood in 1950 but the College demolished it to make way for the Hopkins Center.

3 COLLEGE STREET* about 1843 (by 1950)
Joseph Patch had the house built on land that Dr. Laban Gates once owned (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). Pardy owned the house by 1855, C.H. Swett by 1905, W.L. Robertson by 1928, and the College owned it by 1931 when M.E. Choukas and A.K. Laing occupied the house. One presumes the College demolished the building to make way for Brewster Hall, which now occupies its site.

3 PLEASANT STREET 1800 (GREEN STORE) (HOWE BOOKSHOP)
Jedediah Baldwin of Northampton, Ma. had the shop built on Main Street. The building stood two stories high and had a small dance hall above, occupying a lot two rods wide at the south end of the Storrs lot. Thus it was the third building down from Wheelock Street and occupied the present site of the Davison Block. The shop replaced a 1795 two-story shop burned in 1800: John Robie and Baldwin's watchmaking shop had occupied that building, with tailor Herman Pomroy renting the second floor. Baldwin also built the house at 8 Lebanon Street; he used his Main Street building as the Post Office during his tenure as postmaster from 1797-1811. Townspeople knew the building as the "Green Store." The shop passed in 1811 to John Wheelock, who left it to Princeton Theological Seminary out of spite for the College during the controversy that ended in the Dartmouth College Case (J.K. Lord 1928, 33). Several others used the building after Wheelock, including the Post Office into the 1850s and Howe's Bookstore in the 1860s. The building's owner moved it, probably in the 1870s, (J.M. Lord, 108) to 3 Pleasant Street, where the barber M. Amaral owned it by 1905 and W.D. Phaneuf by 1928.

3 ROPE FERRY ROAD 1893 (OLD HOSPITAL WEST WING)
The west pavilion or Womens' Ward of the old Mary Hitchcock Memorial Hospital is the only part of the 1893 building that survives the 1995 demolition. The pavilion has an domed ceiling of Guastavino tile as did the companion Men's Ward. The building connects to the Old Hitchcock Clinic at 1 Rope Ferry Road on the west and the Old A&B Ward at 5 Rope Ferry Road on the north.

4 WEBSTER AVENUE* 1851 (by 1950) (EYE CLINIC) (PRESIDENT'S HOUSE [III]) (20 NORTH MAIN STREET) (NOYES HOUSE)
Professor D. J. Noyes had the house built at 20 North Main Street, the future site of Silsby. The College bought the building in 1884 as the official President's House and Bartlett occupied it for eight years (J.K. Lord 1928, 49). The College moved the house at some time between 1905 and 1912 to 4 Webster Avenue, adjacent the site of the current Beta Theta Pi House. There as an apartment it housed R.H. Bowen, G.W. Woodworth and Warner Bentley. By 1943 the building housed the Eye Clinic of the 1932 Dartmouth Eye Institute (Land, 62). The house was demolished after 1944.

5 COLLEGE STREET* about 1860 (by 1960)
Mr. Simmons had the house built on east side of the street, next north from today's Brewster Hall. Dr. Laban Gates had once owned the land (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). W.E. Smalley owned the house by 1928 and still in 1931. Though the house still existed in 1950, the College demolished it by the time it began constructing the Hopkins Center in 1960.

5 ROPE FERRY ROAD 1913 (DAWN L. HITCHCOCK WARDS) ([OLD] A&B WARD)
The large tan-brick building stands directly south of Dick's House. Dawn Hitchcock gave the money that allowed the hospital to increase its capacity by two-thirds; the building housed the maternity ward, private rooms, a sunroom, and a dining room in the basement (Land, 19). A three-story addition with a dining room, classroom etc. connected the building to the operating room in 1927 (Land, 44). The College renamed the building 5 Rope Ferry Road in the early 1990s after it purchased the property and the Hospital moved to its site on Route 120.

6 COLLEGE STREET* 1841 (by 1962)
Joseph G. Ward had the small house built in 1841 on the west side of the street, now the site of the Hop Courtyard and cafe (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). Mrs. Ward owned the building by 1855, and Mrs. H.A. Stone by 1905. The College had bought the place by 1928 and by 1931 rented it to James MacKaye. The house still stood in 1950, but one assumes the College demolished it to make room for the Hopkins Center and its landscaping and parking lots.

6 LEBANON STREET* 18XX (by 1962)
The house arose on the west side of Main Street, but its owner brought it in 1869 to the lot next east of the Bank at Main and Lebanon. The old "Hanover Bookstore" long occupied the building at that location (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). Masterson owned the building by 1905; the Hardware Store owned it by 1928; and Mrs. J.H. Capen owned it by 1931. The house still stood in 1950 and possibly in 1962, though the current Dartmouth Bank parking lot now occupies its site.

8 COLLEGE STREET* around 1841 (by 1950)
Harvey Benton, a carriage painter "of unusual skill," had the brick house and shop built about the same time as the house at no.6 (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). Benton owned the building in 1855; H.L. Carter long occupied it and shows up there in 1905. The College had purchased the house by 1928 and moved or demolished it before 1950. It stood roughly where the Hood Museum shop is now, facing College Street to the east.

8 LEBANON STREET* pre-1811 (by 1962)
Jedediah Baldwin had the two-story house built on Lebanon Street; he had also built the house now at 3 Pleasant Street. Baldwin lived in the house until he died in 1811 John Wheelock acquired the building. Wheelock willed the house to the Princeton College out of support for Dartmouth University; it eventually came to widow Lucretia Perry, who still lived there in 1855. Her son-in-law, Dr. L.B. How acquired the building, and then it went J.B. Warden. The Main Street Fire of May 1883 stopped here when a fire engine from Lebanon arrived and kept the fire from going any farther eastward (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). Mrs. L.F. Warden owned the building by 1905 and the College had acquired it by 1928. Romeo Archambault is the owner or occupant in 1931. The house still stood in 1950, though it stood where the drive leading to the back parking lot of the Hop is now,and one assumes the College demolished the building.

8 PLEASANT STREET 1787 (MEDICAL HOUSE) (DOUGLAS HOUSE)
Ezra Carpenter had the small two-story house built between the Medical Building and College Street, now site of the Fairchild Center. Bezaleel Woodward conveyed Carpenter the land. The shoemaker Silas Curtis occupied the house in 1792; before he had the Medical Building Dr. Smith used the building which people called the "Medical House." The building later became dilapidated and its owner moved it to 8 Pleasant Street in 1835 (J.M. Lord, 106) where it became the main part of the B.E. Lewin House (J.K. Lord 1928, 60). The ell of this house is the old Jabez Bingham House.

8 WEST WHEELOCK STREET 18XX
Benjamin Thurston had the house built on a plot that the house of Parker Smith had formerly occupied, next to today's Sigma Delta House. Smith was a tailor and bought the land from the College in 1784; his house disappeared when this one went up (J.K. Lord 1928, 65). By 1855 Cram owned the house, and E.J. Bartlett owned it at least between 1905 and 1931 when maps show him as the owner. The house is still in private hands today and contained a real-estate agency by the early 1990s.

9 COLLEGE STREET* 1875 (1962)
Mrs. Sarah E. Swett, widow of Franklin P. Swett, had built the two-story house of white clapboard with a mansard roof by. Dr. Laban Gates had once owned the land on which it stood, south of old Kappa Kappa Kappa Hall (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). Mrs. Swett still owned the house in 1905; the College owned it by 1928. The site is now the eastern side of the Hood Courtyard and the body of the Hood Museum.

10 COLLEGE STREET* 1850 (19XX)
J.G. Currier had the house built in 1850 from an incomplete frame he moved from the lot north of Crosby. Currier lived here from 1857 to 1867 when the College bought the hous (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). The noise of bowling in neaby Bissell reputedly disturbed him. The College still owned the house in 1931 but it does not appear on 1944 maps.

10 LEBANON STREET* about 1840 (by 1962)
The house stands on land Eleazar Wheelock gave his son James as a New Year's present in 1779 (J.K. Lord 1928, 62). Douglas owned the building in 1855, Mrs. Mary Corey by 1905, Johnson by 1928, and G.C. Bray by 1931. This house, or a wider replacement, was still extant in 1950. The south entrance of the Hopkins Center occupies the site today.

12 LEBANON STREET* about 1840 (by 1962)
The house stood on land that Eleazar Wheelock gave his son James as a New Year's present in 1779 (J.K. Lord 1928, 62). Douglas possibly owned the house in 1855, and D.B. Pelton owned it in 1905. J.H. Bond appears as the owner in 1928 and 1931. The house was still extant in 1950 though the College presumably demolished it for the Hopkins Center.

13 EAST WHEELOCK STREET 18XX
Dr. G.D. Frost owned this house next to today's Chi Heorot House by 1905 and at least through 1931. The house had a barn on 1944 maps. The College bought the house between 1950 and 1961 and by c.1997 used it as housing for the faculty head of the East Wheelock cluster.

13 MAPLE STREET 1774 (WILLIAM WINTON HOUSE)
The house originally stood on the site of Robinson Hall, just north of Comfort Sever House, on a lot that Wheelock granted to the mason William Winton in 1774. The architect and carpenter George Williston had the house moved in 1811 to what is now 13 Maple Street.

13 WEST WHEELOCK STREET 1820 (after 1931) (PRESIDENT SMITH HOUSE)
Colonel Amos A. Brewster had this house built west of today's Theta Delta Chi House. The building had a bowed central segment and stood back from the street. Brewster's widow occupied the house from his death in 1845 until at least 1855. Professor J.S. Woodman bought the house and sold it to President Smith in 1865. After Smith died his daughter lived in the house until her death in 1916 (J.K. Lord 1928, 66) though it appears that G.D. Frost owned the building by 1905. Maps list O.A. Randall as the owner in 1928 and 1931. The house had a barn by 1922 that still appeared on 1944 maps when it had become a rooming house. The house burned or its owner demolished or moved it, and the site is now a large lawn that the fraternity uses.

14 LEBANON STREET* about 1850 (by 1962)
Oliver Carter, who also built the house at #20, had the house built on the southwest corner of Lebanon and College Streets (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). L. Gove owned the house at least between 1928 and 1931, when Paul Dudley and E. Wyman rented it. The building lasted to at least 1950, though one can assume the College demolished it for the Hopkins Center--it stood just south of the southeast corner of Spaulding Auditorium.

15 EAST WHEELOCK STREET* 18XX (1985) (ALPHA TAU OMEGA HOUSE) (ALPHA KAPPA KAPPA HOUSE [III]) (COSMOS CLUB)
C.H. Hitchcock owned the house by 1905 when C.E. Bolser rented it. The Cosmos Club occupied the house at least between 1922 and 1927 according to Sanborn maps. 1924 Alpha Tau Omega Fraternity (Richardson 1928, 796), also used the house, which appeared as a fraternity house on 1944 maps. The fraternity had folded in 1936 (Baird's) Alpha Kappa Kappa Fraternity used the house at least between the years 1950 and 1961 after moving from 18 West Wheelock Street: Alpha Kappa Kappa is a medical fraternity and spread nationally from its founding at Dartmouth. The building no longer stood by 1984, and the College might have razed it to make room for Morton Hall which occupies the site now.

17 1/2 LEBANON STREET 1987 (SERRY'S MENSWEAR) (ZAPPALA BUILDING)
The cubic brick building was built for Serry's Menswear, founded in 1907 and closed during 2004. The College then acquired the building and remodeled it.

18 ALLEN STREET 19XX
The College owns the duplex on the corner of Allen and Prospect Streets, possibly numbered 4 Prospect Street. The house went up after 1927 and before 1944.

18 LEBANON STREET* around 1809 (by 1950)
Joseph Hill had the house built on land that John Wheelock originally leased to him in 1809 (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). In 1855 O. Carter appears as the owner; in 1905 Hubbard Carter owns the building and occupies it with E.N. Carter and E. Provencher. In 1928 Rogers of the Garage owns the house and in 1931 V.S. Bates and A.B. Simons own it. Rogers Garage occupied the northern edge of the lot on which the house sat from 1927 onward; the Garage removed the house by 1950 to clear the way for an addition. The site is now the parking lot southeast of Brewster.

20 LEBANON STREET* c.1845 (by 1962)
Oliver Carter had the house built on land the heirs of John Wheelock leased him around 1845. Carter also built number 14. A. Corey owned the house in 1855, L.B. Newell in 1905, S.C. Rogers of Rogers Garage in 1928 and 1931; the building still stood in 1950, though it had disappeared by 1962. Rogers' Garage stood on the northern part of the lot the house had occupied, though the Garage did not remove the house during its southern extension. The site is now a grassy area and parking lot for College employees.

21 NORTH MAIN STREET* about 1835 (1928) (DRAGON SOCIETY HOUSE [I])
Dr. Samuel Alden, who also built what is now the C&G House, had the tall yellow house built for his relatives Mrs. Pearson and Mrs. Harriet Hawkins. Mrs. Hawkins's daughter occupied the house until her death in 1875, when Professor E.R. Ruggles bought and enlarged it. The College bought the house when Ruggles died in 1897 (J.K. Lord 1928, 51). The 1898 Dragon Society used the house by 1905, E.D. Elston by 1928, and other owners included Harry French and Dave Lambuth (McCarter, 54). The College demolished the building to make way for Carpenter Hall, as it stood just north of where that building stands today.

22 LEBANON STREET* c.1823 (after 1950)
Major Tenney had the house built (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). Hendrick owned the house in 1855, James Cunningham in 1905, simply Cunningham in 1928, and Miss Ella Cunningham in 1931. The house still stood in 1950 but the College later removed it. The parking lot for FO&M and other College employees southwest of the Oil Bunker now occupies the site.

24 LEBANON STREET* c.1844 (after 1950)
Lemuel Stevens had the house built in 1843 or 1844 (J.K. Lord 1928, 63). Jason Dudley owned the house in 1855, N.A. Messenger in 1905, A.N. Messenger (sic) in 1928, and Archie Messenger in 1931. The house still stood in 1950 but the College later removed it. The Oil Bunker and parking lot now occupy the site south of the Heating Plant.

24 1/2 LEBANON STREET* between 1928 and 1931 (between 1991 and 1993)
The small house went up between 1928 and 1931 and stood back from the street. Holland Gile owned the building in 1931. The house still appears on a 1991 map but was not visible in 1994.

27 EAST WHEELOCK STREET 1832
Deacon Samuel Long had the house built at 17 North Main Street, the future site of Baker Library. The house moved in 1847 (J.K. Lord 1928, 51).

30 SOUTH MAIN STREET* by 1893 (1905)
1893 and 1898 maps list the building as the home to Beta Theta Pi, as well as the Express Office in 1893. The building stood south of the eastern Bridgman Block, that is above the Ledyard Bank Building.

32 NORTH MAIN STREET* 18XX (by 1944)
The small house with a porch on two sides stood roughly where Webster Cottage is today, possibly the "small house that came in by squatter sovereignty" (Lord, 50). The building appears on maps of 1904 and was numbered 30.5 between at least 1922 and 1927. A long wagon shed sat behind the house, running east-west, on a map of 1912. The house was apparently part of the Clark School by the 1920s. The building disappears from maps by 1944.

35 ROPE FERRY ROAD 192X (EDWARD HALL HOUSE)
Edward Hall 1892, donor of Dick's House, had the house built on Rope Ferry Road. Hall was a vice president of AT&T and president of the nationwide Football Rules Committee, having led the faction of that body that allowed the forward pass in 1905. The Committee met at this house until Hall's death in 1932 (R.N. Hill, 280).

38 EAST WHEELOCK STREET c.1786 (HOUSE OF SEVEN GABLES) (GABLE HOUSE) (WHITE HOUSE)
Thaddeus White supposedly had the house built; it originally stood at 19 North Main Street. Deacon Samuel Long lived in the house from 1819 to 1847, after which Treasurer James Blaisdell occupied it until 1875 (J.K. Lord 1928, 51). At some time an owner transformed the house and it became known as the House of Seven Gables. C.P. Chase owned the building by 1905, and in 1917-18 the Telephone Department of the D.C. Training Detachment used the building for the war effort (Clark, 41). Jigger Pender and later Whee also owned the house (McCarter, 54). Professor Ernest R. Greene bought the house in 1925 (J.M. Lord, 104); the building appears on a 1928 map as "Waffel Shoppe." Greene moved the house in 1925 and the library's west entrance now occupies its site. By the 1980s the Fred Salvatoriello family lived in the house (Barrett, Town of Hanover calendar, Main Street, date unknown).

42 LEBANON STREET 18XX
The house moved from a position near Sphinx in 1868 to its current location on Lebanon Street (J.K. Lord 1928, 64). Edward Kalleher (sic) owned the house by 1905, William Keleher (sic) by 1928 and Mrs. Mary Kelaher (sic) by 1931.

44 COLLEGE STREET pre-1855
The pre-1855 house at 44 College Street was the residence of Sewall Coffin for many years, followed by James S. Adams and then Louis Pollens. When Mrs. Pollens died in 1915, Mrs. Laura E. A. Phelps bought the house to use as the residence of her daughter, Mrs. W. Pierce Crosby (J.K. Lord 1928, 56). Medical School professor Harry Tapley Johnson French Õ13, DMS Ô14, acquired the house during the late 1920s and occupied it into the 1950s (town directories 1928, 1954). Under College ownership, the house has served as a Russian-language immersion house and as the CollegeÕs office for international students.

46 COLLEGE STREET* 1820s-30s (196X) (LYME HOTEL)
The house was likely almost as old as its neighbors, though J.K. Lord was not aware of its builder. It stood next to today's Sudikoff, facing Burke. G.L. Osgood owned the house for many years and rented it to students, including roommates Edward Tuck and William Jewett Tucker in the Winter term of 1860-1 (Tucker, 320). Students knew the house as the "Lyme Hotel." James Thomas bought the building in 1866 and lived there until 1881, after which Owen McCarthy, Clarence W. Scott followed him (J.K. Lord 1928, 56). Next George D. Lord owned the house, living there by 1905 and still occupying the house in 1931. The Hospital presumably demolished or moved the house to make room for the 1968 Mental Health/Sudikoff.

48 COLLEGE STREET* 1842 (195X)
S.R. Everett began building the house, though College-employed carpenter G.L. Osgood finished it. The building stood on the northwest corner of Maynard and College Streets. Osgood rented rooms to students and helped his sons through college by making molasses candy for them to sell (J.K. Lord 1928, 56). The Hospital presumably demolished the house between 1950 and 1960 to make room for the parking lot.

56 COLLEGE STREET* 1842 (1962)
George Dewey had the house built at the end of College Street; the barn was older and once part of Woodward farm (J.K. Lord 1928, 56). The Misses Dewey lived in the house for many years, rebuffing College interest in building the President's House on their land in the 1920s. The old Medical School rests largely on former Dewey farmland (Barrett, 104), and presumably demolished this house to build the MM Lab.

60 SOUTH MAIN STREET by 1786 (1964) (WAINRIGHT HOUSE)
The last 18th-Century Hanover house on its original foundations stood at 60 South Main Street. The Wainright family owned the house from 1836 to 1911. H.R. Heneage owned the building in 1961 (J.M. Lord, 104). The government demolished the house in 1964 to allow the Post Office to expand (Barrett, 35); now its site is the parking lot south of the Post Office.

80 SOUTH MAIN STREET 1980s
The rather suburban and internally-oriented mall stands across from Grand Union, located in the Hanover Zone of Death as defined by geographer Peter Jolicoeur '95.
