This postcard shows modification to the porch at Wolfe Hall on the campus of the College of the Sisters of Bethany in Topeka, Kansas. The stone and concrete addition could possibly be credited to Kansas City architect Louis Curtiss. The building was located at Ninth and Polk Streets and was completed in 1872 to provide an Episcopalian education to young women from kindergarten through their second year of college. Classes were taught in the college's main building until a decline in enrollment forced the school to close in 1928. Wolfe Hall was demolished in 1959.
