Gore Hall is a historic building on the Harvard University campus. It was the school's first library.[1] The building was designed by Richard Bond (architect)

He also designed Lawrence Hall (1847) (a scientific school) and the addition of a two-story porch for Harvard Hall (1842).[1] He and his partner also designed Tremont Bank in Boston[2] and he is credited as the architect of North Parish Church in North Andover, Massachusetts.[3]
