Elah Terrell (1851–1920) was an American architect from Columbus, Ohio. Terrell designed important buildings under the company Elah T. Terrell & Co. in Ohio, notably in Sheffield, Lorain County, and Columbus.[1] Terrell was a member of the Ohio chapter of the American Institute of Architects.[2]

Terrell's office was in the Merchants and Manufacturers' National Bank building in Downtown Columbus, a building he designed.[3]

Around 1888, Elah Terrell designed numerous structures in the Ohio State Fairgrounds. Several remain, including Power Hall, later known as Antiques and Collectibles, and an information booth or kiosk southeast of the Administration Building.[4]
