Memorial Hall, also known as Harvard Memorial Hall, is a historic building located at Harvard University in Cambridge, Massachusetts, United States. This photograph, taken between 1900 and 1920, captures the iconic '87 Gate, which is a popular gathering spot for students and alumni. The architectural style of Memorial Hall is primarily Romanesque Revival, with its arches, red brick exterior, and large central tower. During this time period, Memorial Hall was a central hub of activity at Harvard University, serving as the campus post office, a dining hall, and a venue for various events. The building was dedicated in 1877 to commemorate the sacrifices of Harvard alumni who had served in the American Civil War. This photograph, taken using a dry plate negative glass 8 x 10 in, provides a glimpse into the past, showcasing the grandeur and historical significance of Memorial Hall and the '87 Gate.
