The College of New Rochelle (New York) had started as the College of St Angela. Then, it became Mercy College after the Sisters of Mercy bought the institution. After merger with yet another college, the combined colleges became the College of New Rochelle. The castle-like structure shown in Dehey is still there. The library was named for Mother Irene Gill, the Ursuline foundress of the college.
The college was forced to close as a result of financial issues:
