Grace Hopkinson Eliot Hall is a four-story neo-Georgian brick dormitory on Harvard's Radcliffe Quadrangle, built in 1907 to a design by Alexander Wadsworth Longfellow Jr. It is named for Grace Hopkinson Eliot, wife of Harvard President Charles W. Eliot, and was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986. It is now one of the dormitories of Cabot House.

A cost-cut twin. Eliot Hall was built as a near-duplicate of the adjacent Bertram Hall, though some of its architectural details were simplified compared to its twin in order to reduce construction costs.
the style
The Colonial Revival style appears here as neo-Georgian brick construction, a common idiom for Harvard's early-20th-century dormitories.
