Wow. This is surprising! KD built that house in the 1920s, and it's not like they are exactly struggling. This is a very successful chapter. The addition may not be the best looking, but the Chi Psi house is definitely boxier/uglier in my opinion.
Do you think your source might have been thinking of Alpha Xi Delta? That would be the only sorority chapter currently looking for a house, and the Chi Psi house wouldn't be a terrible location if it was demolished or heavily remodeled.
Just seems like KD would be taking a big risk, a large workload, and making a lot of alumnae very unhappy for a pretty small potential reward...
If they moved they would be one of a very few sororities on campus that hasn't lived in their house for 90+ years!
