East Hall, Italianate academic building at Tufts University, Medford, US.
East Hall features red brick walls, sandstone trim, arched windows, and a low-pitched roof with extended eaves supported by detailed corbels.
The construction of East Hall began in 1853 under architect Gridley J.F. Bryant, marking the first academic structure of Tufts University after its establishment.
The building has transformed from housing dormitories, a chapel, and a library to becoming the center for English and History departments at Tufts University.
The departments of English and History maintain offices and classrooms across three floors, with access to multiple study spaces for students.
The building's position on Walnut Hill provides direct views of the Boston skyline, while its basement formerly contained a dining facility called The Dive.
