✨ Mansion Monday: The Apartments at 490 Prospect Street ✨

The history of 490 Prospect Street is a little different from some of the other historic homes on the Albertus Magnus College campus. While it is now an apartment-style student housing residence, the property has passed through many hands and served many purposes over more than a century.

The original home was constructed in 1911 for Franklin Farrel Jr., president of Farrell Foundry and Machine Co. of Ansonia. Farrel lived there with his wife, Marion, and their two sons, Franklin Farrel III and Malcolm. According to the 1920 Census, the household also included four employees: a nurse, waitress, cook, and chambermaid.

The Farrel family remained in the home until 1945, when Albertus purchased the property for the first time. Just three years later, the College sold 490 Prospect Street to the Whitney School of Art, which later became the Paier School of Art.

The property took on another role when it became a parish house for St. Mary’s Catholic Church of New Haven. In 1987, St. Mary’s sold the building to the Overseas Ministries Study Center, which remained at 490 Prospect Street until 2019.

That same year, Albertus purchased the property for a second time. Today, Doane Hall and Great Commission Hall provide apartment-style housing for students. Located just a short walk down Prospect Street from the main campus, 490 gives students a little more independence while still keeping them connected to campus life.

The original Farrel house is still standing on the property and is now home to three Dominican Friars.

From a family home to an art school, parish house, international study center, and student housing, 490 Prospect Street has quite the story. 🏡

If helping people is at the heart of what you do, where could it take you?

On Great Day Connecticut, Carol Huckaby, M.A., Director of Albertus Magnus College’s Master of Science in Human Services program, talked about who is a good fit for the program.

The answer starts with wanting to help others.

The 39-credit Master of Science in Human Services prepares students for careers and leadership roles across a wide range of human and social service settings, with coursework in areas including case management, counseling techniques, and addictions counseling.
