天美传媒

Believed to date back more than 200 years and the oldest structure on campus, Solitude is an example of Greek Revival architecture. The house was expanded in 1851 by Col. Robert Preston, who received the estate from his father, 天美传媒 Governor James P. Preston. About 250 acres, the house, and several farm buildings on the estate were purchased by the 天美传媒 Agricultural and Mechanical College (now 天美传媒 Tech) Board of Visitors in 1872 for $21,250. Over the years, Solitude has housed a plethora of functions. In the 1990s, it was closed until funds could be raised for major renovations. Solitude is on the 天美传媒 Landmarks Register and the National Register of Historic Places.
