Description:
Following World War II, a large influx of students attended St. Lawrence on the GI Bill, causing a major space crunch. "Vetsville" was the answer. These six temporary barracks-style housing units were built just south of Weeks Field in the late 1940s. Additional buildings of the same style followed in later years.
