Griswold Hall
Griswold Hall was dedicated in the fall of 1979 to Erwin Griswold (1904-1994), former dean of the School (1946-1967) and former United States solicitor general, on the occasion of his seventy-fifth birthday. Griswold houses the Dean's Office, the First-Year Legal Research and Writing Program, faculty offices, and other administrative offices. This building and Pound Hall were designed by Cambridge architect Benjamin Thompson, renowned for his rehabilitation of Quincy Market near Boston's waterfront.
Two sculptures grace Griswold Hall--as you enter the building, you'll see Two Triangles and a Harp by Bernice Loss, former curator of the School's art collection, and in the courtyard between Griswold and Areeda Halls is a three-piece bronze sculpture called Judgment by John Safer of the Class of 1949.
Exit Griswold through the same door you entered, and turn right for Areeda Hall, #6.
