Newell Boathouse, Varsity rowing facility on Charles River, Cambridge, United States.

The Newell Boathouse features two indoor rowing tanks, modern training equipment, video rooms, meeting spaces, and varsity locker rooms for athletes.

Constructed in 1900, the boathouse received its name from Marshall Newell, a distinguished Harvard athlete who excelled in both rowing and football.

The interior displays numerous rowing artifacts, championship plaques, and historical photographs documenting Harvard's men's rowing program achievements through generations.

Located between Harvard Square and Soldiers Field athletics complex, the facility maintains restricted access exclusively for varsity rowing team members.

Harvard University pays one dollar annually through a thousand-year lease agreement with Massachusetts to maintain the boathouse on state-owned riverfront land.
