Notes: Former residence of Basil Aylesworth, Class of 1897, Law School 1899; and later Thomas McCormick, professor of Business. After purchase by SU, housed the office of Family Relations. It was renovated in June 1983 to house the offices of the Daily Orange.

The Daily Orange moved out of 744 Ostrom Avenue in November 2019 and was relocated to 230 Euclid Ave. as part of the University’s New Strategic Housing Plan. The building was demolished along with several other residential structures along the 700 block of Ostrom Avenue to make room for student housing.
