The Superintendent's House was a building located roughly where Dodge Hall stands today. It was originally part of the Bloomingdale Insane Asylum where it served it's eponymous function until Columbia moved in. It served as home to the Music Department until 1905, and then the Men's Faculty Club when it first met in 1906, until it was demolished in 1922 to make way for Dodge Hall. It was known at varying times as "Old South Hall", the "Men's Faculty Club," and the "Officer's Club."

When it was demolished, President Butler commissioned the construction of Faculty House to replace it.
