Founded by Mrs. Anna Wolcott Vaile in 1898, The historic Wolcott was once an elite private boarding and day school for girls seeking higher education, including first lady, Mamie Eisenhower, and Margaret “Molly” Brown’s daughter, Helen Brown.
A building that was once complete with a gymnasium, auditorium, bowling alley, clubhouse, a small library, and even an attached school home, now holds over forty apartments varying from studios, one, two, and three-bedroom units!
Located in the Cheesman Park neighborhood, this building is surrounded by vintage residential homes and buildings but is also nearby many of today’s popular local restaurants, bars, and coffee shops, like The Mansion, Thump Coffee, and The Corner Beet.
