Faculty Lane House 4

Postal address: 234 Faculty Lane


In 1905 Concordia College requested and received the Synod’s approval and funding to build this house for $3,000.00. Construction was completed by 1908.

The original location is in the area of the Weller Hall. The house was moved to its Faculty Lane location in the early 1920s to make space for Weller Hall, which was built in 1924.

The house was occupied by the family of Theodore Stelzer from 1930 to 1949.

It was occupied by the family of Theodore Beck from 1956 to 1960.

It served as a dormitory for female students from 1960 to 1964.

The house was moved to North Columbia Avenue in July 1964 to make room for the construction of the Music Building. The family of Werner Klammer moved the house and lived in the house in the new location until [year?].

It was occupied by the family of Tom Ramsey from [year?] to the present.

It has been occupied by the family of Pete Hubbard from [year?] to the present.


As you looked at the house from Faculty Lane, the porch was on the left side.

This house had the big asparagus patch, and rhubarb, in the northeast corner just up against the hedge that separated our yard from the third house.
