Alpha Delta has owned seven different houses over the years. The current home at 1919 MacVicar was built in the 1890's by a Topeka-area doctor, Dr. Forest Loveland. Alpha Delta purchased the house in the spring of 1969, and after some upgrades occupied the house in 1970. The house has been expanded to house up to 30 residents after three significant upgrade and renovation projects over the years to make it the modern facility members enjoy today.
