History
Built in 1961, Eliot House was named for Dr. Frederick May Eliot, trustee from 1940 to 1958. The Meditation Garden and Room were redesigned in 1984 and dedicated as Wa-Shin-An. I had no images of Eliot House in my collection, so I took this photo on September 7, 1998. I have since found a few Eliot House postcards.
