Phi Kappa Hall – UGA 20 (1834, Category 2). Phi Kappa Hall is the home of the Phi Kappa Literary Society, organized in the 1820s to compete with the Demosthenian Literary Society. It was completed in 1834 after three years of construction. Phi Kappa Hall is Greek Revival in style, but with little ornamentation. The building faces its rival, Demosthenian Hall, across the quadrangle. After membership in the Phi Kappa Literary Society waned, the building was adapted for other university purposes. The upper floor is still furnished as a meeting place, however.
Phi Kappa Hall is a contributing building of the Old North Campus Historic District. The building has very high historic integrity with little apparent change over the years. The exterior red brick has been repointed, and the building retains its original wood windows. It is assessed as a Category 2 resource.
