 office building, dormitory, NRHP - National Register of Historic Places, Georgian (architecture), 1720s construction, U.S. National Historic Landmark

Oldest surviving Harvard building, built between 1718 and 1720 to a design possibly by John Leverett. Largely used as an administration building; the President of the University, Provost, Treasurer, and Vice Presidents have offices that occupy the first two floors and half of the third. Freshmen reside in the fourth floor. It is speculated that over the next few years, the Faculty of Arts and Sciences will cede some or all of the residential space to University administration.
