Each Monday the Centre Daily Times will publish an installment in our Share our Heritage series, featuring photos from Centre Countys past. Todays photo was submitted by Eugene Dutrow, of Centre Hall.
It is a photo of the Pennsylvania Lambda Chapter of the Phi Kappa Psi fraternity house on Locust Lane under construction in 1925.
According to Dutrow, the fraternity purchased four lots on the east side of Locust Lane in the spring of 1922.
Plans designed by Penn State architecture professor F.C. Disque were implemented Jan. 19, 1925.
The house was built that year by John W. Henszey and the fraternity brothers began living there that fall, even though construction was not completed until 1926.
Dutrow is particularly proud of this photo because both his father and grandfather, who worked on the construction, are in it.
His father, Claude, is in the back row, the sixth man standing from the left (wearing overalls); and his grandfather, Clyde, is the eighth man from the left in the same row.
