From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Alfred L. Morse Auditorium is a domed theater that is now owned by Boston University and used as an auditorium. Built in 1903 as Temple Adath Israel, Boston University acquired the building in 1967 when the congregation moved. In 1971, the building was named in honor of BU benefactor Alfred L. Morse, who was a member of the BU Board of Trustees from 1968 to 1973. The building is currently used for large lectures, events, and talks.
The building is clad in white marble and today much of it is covered in vine. The building is adjacent to the Physics Research Building (PRB), Metcalf Science Center (SCI), and the Boston University College of Communication (COM).
