Notes

General Note:
The Chi Omega chapter of Queens College built this cottage along Radcliffe Avenue to house sorority events in February, 1928. As one of six distinct cottages representing Sorority Row, the cottages were demolished in 1958 and new facilities were fashioned. In 1978, the Queens chapter of Chi Omega bequeathed a wooden gazebo to honor their 50th anniversary. The gazebo was placed on the former cottage site and an Owl was affixed to the roof. In subsequent years, the gazebo has moved several locations but remains an iconic symbol of solidarity and distinction at Queens College.
