Connected to Johnson and Rutledge by covered passageways, Roddey
Apartments was originally a residence hall named West Hall. The building
was renamed in 1926 to honor William Joseph Roddey, Board of Trustee
member who served from 1893-45. The Rock Hill industrialist played a
prominent role in bringing Winthrop to Rock Hill. Roddey was the first
Winthrop facility built in the Neo-Georgian style, setting an
architectural trend in campus buildings that would last for more than 45
years. Interior space was converted to efficiency apartments in 1975 and
renovated in 1989 to house primarily married couples, single parents,
graduate and international students.
