1890's Historic Apartment Buildings. Relax in
our quiet residential neighborhood (two blocks North of Summit
Avenue and one-half a block East of Dale Street) or, walk three blocks to
popular Grand Avenue. We are located
in the heart of St. Paul's historic Ramsey Hill area. Known as
the Oak Hall girls' school in the early 1900's, our three
buildings were converted into apartments during the 1930's. 580
Holly (brownstone and red brick) is the oldest of the three and
is said to have been the girls' dormitory. 590 Holly (white
painted brick) was filled with classrooms and included a 3rd
floor ballroom. 586 Holly (center building - white painted brick
and stucco) had been the gymnasium before its upper two floors
were added to create space for four apartments.
