Stone Hall was a building on the campus of Cornell University in Ithaca, New York, named after John Lemuel Stone, a CALS professor of farm practice during the early 1900s.[2] Stone, Roberts, and East Roberts Hall were three joined buildings on the Agriculture Quadrangle, with the larger Roberts in the center and Stone and East Roberts on the west and east sides, respectively. All three were demolished in the late 1980s.

It is listed erroneously as the building is no longer there. East Robert Hall and Roberts Hall are two other former Cornell University buildings that were and are similarly listed.
The building that is currently located here is also named Roberts Hall. It houses the offices of the Dean of CALS, the NYS Experiment Station Director, and the Director of Cornell Cooperative Extension. It is linked by a breezeway to Kennedy Hall on the South. From the aerial view shown here, the two buildings appear as one.
