Elmwood, also called the Oliver-Gerry-Lowell House, is a Georgian-style house in Cambridge, Massachusetts, and the centerpiece of a National Historic Landmark District. Built about 1767 by John Nutting for Lieutenant Governor Thomas Oliver, it later belonged to Elbridge Gerry and the writer James Russell Lowell. Harvard now owns it and uses it as the official residence of its president, restoring the interior to a traditional Georgian style. The house is not open to the public.
