East Roberts Hall was a building on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, which opened on Wednesday, October 10, 1906.^[2] Originally just referred to as the Dairy Building,^[3] it was not called East Roberts Hall until 1923 when other departments moved in and the Dairy Department moved out and into the new Dairy Building. East Roberts Hall no longer exists.^[4]

It was listed on the U.S. National Register of Historic Places in 1984. It is still listed on the National Register.^[1]

It is listed erroneously as the building is no longer there.^[5] Roberts Hall and Stone Hall are two other former Cornell University buildings that were and are similarly listed.
