Hubbard Hall, often called "The Boat House," is the historic home of the United States Naval Academy's rowing teams in Annapolis, Maryland. Located on , off of the Severn River, it was completed in 1930 for the 40-man heavyweight rowing team. It supports the men's lightweight and heavyweight teams and the women's team with over 200 members. The Academy is in the process[when?] of completing a new USD $20 million renovation of the entire building including the rowing tank.
Hubbard Hall is named for Rear Admiral John Hubbard (1849-1932), a member of the Naval Academy's Class of 1870 who as oar stroke led a Navy crew to victory in 1870. The Hall was the first building at the Academy to be named after a living person.[2][3]
