2 Langdon Street, built in 1857. From 1877 to 1885 it served as the residence of E.M. Fuller, who built Madison's Fuller Opera House. It was extensively remodeled, first in 1907 and then again in 1930, when it was turned into the Colonial Lodge Residence Hall, a woman's boarding house. From 1925 to 1927, it was used as the Phi Kappa Phi Chapter house.
