This magnificent building errected in 1898 at Ellicott and Riley is part of the campus of buildings formerly housing the St. Vincents Female Orphan Asylum. The campus also included the Squire Mansion which has recently been successfully renovated and fully leased (see below). I believe that this building was last used as…
