Notes: Originally owned by Professor Harry J. Heltman, Class of 1910, the home boasted a living room with French doors leading to the dining room, 5 bedrooms, and oak floors throughout. In 1987 it became the home of National Pan-Hellenic Council, with offices and meeting space to serve 8 predominantly African-American fraternities and sororities on campus. In 2002 it was converted to the Office of Off-Campus and Commuter Services.

In 2019 the building was demolished along with several other residential structures along the 700 block of Ostrom Avenue to make room for student housing.
