Grace Hopkinson Eliot Hall, often called Eliot Hall, is a historic dormitory building on the Radcliffe Quadrangle of Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The four story neo-Georgian brick building was built in 1907 to a design by Alexander Wadsworth Longfellow Jr. It is a duplicate of Bertram Hall, which is adjacent, except some of its architectural details were simplified to reduce costs. The house is named in honor of Grace Hopkinson Eliot, the wife of Harvard President Charles W. Eliot. [2] The building is now one of the dormitories of Cabot House. [3]
