Henderson House records

Content Description

The Tudor revival manor was purchased by Ernest Henderson in 1961. Henderson, President of the Sheraton Corporation and a member of the Northeastern University Board of Trustees, donated the property to Northeastern, and the house was used for events and educational programs beginning in 1962.
