Ely Hall, University building at Vassar College in Poughkeepsie, United States.

The two-story Richardsonian Romanesque structure houses the Department of Earth Science and Geography, featuring classrooms, laboratories, and specialized research spaces.

Constructed in 1889 as the Alumnae Gymnasium, the building was renamed Ely Hall in 1933 after Achsah M. Ely, who led fundraising efforts.

The Aula, a central gathering space within Ely Hall, serves as a meeting point for faculty discussions and academic events at Vassar College.

The A. Scott Warthin Jr. Museum of Geology and Natural History inside Ely Hall opens on weekdays from 9 AM to 5 PM during academic terms.

The building contains laboratories dedicated to earth materials studies, paleoclimatology, clastic sedimentology, and geophysics research.
