John Winthrop House (commonly Winthrop House) is one of twelve undergraduate residential Houses at Harvard University. It is home to approximately 400 upperclass undergraduates. Winthrop house consists of two buildings, Standish Hall and Gore Hall, originally freshman dormitories built in 1912. In 1931 they were joined as John Winthrop House, one of the seven original Harvard houses in which students reside from sophomore through senior years. Historically, Winthrop was also one of the first Harvard houses open to Catholic and Jewish students. Winthrop House maintains an affiliation with Davenport College at Yale University. The house's name honors two notable men who shared the name "John Winthrop"—the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony, as well as his descendant, an 18th-century astronomer who was both a Harvard professor and president of the university. The house shield is from the Winthrop family coat of arms: a lion with three chevrons in the background. In heraldric language, the blazon of the house shield is "Argent three chevrons Gules overall a lion rampant Sable." The current faculty deans of Winthrop House are Stephen Chong and Kiran Gajwani, who were appointed to replace interim deans Mark Gearan and Mary Herlihy-Gearan. Gearan and Herlihy-Gearan took over for a one-year term following the College's decision to let go of former deans Ronald S. Sullivan Jr. and Stephanie Robinson in 2019.

The Harvard Houses Historic District is a historic district encompassing seven residential colleges of Harvard University. The district is roughly bounded by Mt. Auburn, Grant, and Cowperwaite Streets, Banks Street and Putman Avenue, Memorial Drive, and JFK Street (formerly Boylston Street) in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The contributing buildings to the district are predominantly residential dormitory buildings which were constructed between 1913 and 1930 as part of Harvard's House system, and are Georgian Revival in style. There are three small residential buildings which were built in the 18th and 19th centuries, and a number of non-contributing later buildings, including among others the towers of Leverett House and the modern portion of Quincy House at 58 Plympton Street. The buildings are an imposing presence in the streetview of Memorial Drive between Western Avenue and the Anderson Memorial Bridge, but their massing is interrupted by mature tree plantings, and they are organized to provide courtyards and quadrangles in the interior of the district.The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.

Lowell House is one of twelve undergraduate residential Houses at Harvard University, located at 10 Holyoke Place facing Mount Auburn Street between Harvard Yard and the Charles River. Officially, it is named for the Lowell family, but an ornate ALL woven into the ironwork above the main gate discreetly alludes to Abbott Lawrence Lowell, Harvard's president at the time of construction. Its majestic neo-Georgian design, centered on two landscaped courtyards, received the 1938 Harleston Parker Medal and might be considered the model for later Harvard houses nearby. Lowell House is simultaneously close to the Yard, Harvard Square, and other Harvard "River" houses, and its blue-capped bell tower, visible for many miles, is a local landmark.
