About Harvard

Square

Harvard Square, located between Harvard Yard and the Charles River, is a historic and academic Cambridge neighborhood with brick-lined streets and a constant street-level buzz. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at the Harvard Square kiosk at Mass Ave and JFK Street, where buskers, bookish storefronts, and late-night bites cluster under the subway entrance. Harvard Book Store, The Brattle Theatre, and The Harvard Coop serve as long-running cultural anchors. Red-brick university buildings meet compact apartment blocks and small commercial lanes such as Brattle Street and Mount Auburn Street. Pocket parks and the Cambridge Common frame the edges with lawns and paths. Cafes, lecture halls, and music rooms keep the sidewalks active from morning through after-hours.
