The college main building was made by James C. and Joseph Deyerle, and is built in Flemish bond, in Greek Revival style on the north end of College Street. "Flanking wings, set back about two feet from the central facade, were added in the 1850s by local contractor, G. B. Fitzgerald. In 1903 the college added a third floor to the building, and a monumental portico with elaborate Classical Revival architecture details."Pulice, Michael J.
