Fodor's Review:

Shortly after its construction in 1767, this three-story Georgian house was abandoned by its owner, colonial governor Thomas Oliver. Elmwood House was home to the accomplished Lowell family for two centuries. Elmwood is now the Harvard University president's residence ever since student riots in the 1960s drove President Nathan Pusey from his house in Harvard Yard.
