Moving Day On Tuesday, October 19, the oldest house in South
Hadley was moved down Route 116 from 40 Woodbridge Street to
28 Woodbridge Street, the 1788 home of Ruggles Woodbridge. His
home, Sycamores, was a Mount Holyoke dormitory from 1915 to 1970.
Each year 14 students, predominantly sophomores, and a housemother
lived there, attended by a maid and a cook. Of the nearly 800
students who resided there many come back to Reunion to seek
out their rooms and relive their days in Sycamores.
