 Harvard Square, Cambridge,
Massachusetts by Cabana_BoyLeave a Comment

Central Square is a little more 'edgey' than most squares, but is undergoing lots of renovations. I am afraid it may too far like Harvard Square and start to look like a suburban shopping mall. Anyway, Central Square is located at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue, Western Avenue, Magazine Street and River Street which turns into 'Cambridge Street' after it leaves Cambridge and crosses the Charles River into Allston another Boston borough (go figure).

Inman Square is located at the intersection of Inman Street, Antrim Street, Springfield Street and Cambridge Street where Beacon Street turns into Hampshire Street. Get it? Confusioning, eh! Well, that's Boston for you, they let the damn cows determine the streets...absolutely no city planning. Leave a Comment

 Kendall Square,
Cambridge, Massachusetts by Cabana_Boy
However, you can find a few bars around the movie theater, including a nice pool hall.
One Friday night my roomate and I went to Flat Top Johnny's after work and proceeding to drink pitcher after pitcher of Newcastle Brown Ale (one of my favorite beers) at the bar. The place was mostly filled with the university kids from MIT and Harvard.
Anyway, as the night wore on, the bartender started cutting off some of the college kids who were getting a little too drunk. After cutting one particular guy off, the bartender looked at Charles and I and said "I should be cutting you guys off, how many ptichers have you guys had?" We replied, "well, not sure, but we are empty...can you get us another?" To that the bartender replaced our empty pitcher with a full one... It was just one of those Friday nights after a bad week of work that no amount of beer could resolve the amount of stress built up...

THE GLOBE CORNER BOOKSTORE (Harvard Square)
Out of Business, now. This is an example of why people should not give their custom to the huge and lifeless chains which now dominate the square.
WORDSWORTH (Harvard Square)
Another Cambridge landmark out of business. I can still picture this lovely bookstore in my mind. I've lived near Harvard Square since the early 80's and finally I believe that with the loss of the bookstores, the heart has gone out of it. Leave a Comment

MIT. Sadly enough, a lot of students here develop a kind of masochistic attitude toward school work. I hate working on impossible problem sets and staying up until 3am every night, but there are a lot of times when you really appreciate the effort you've put into an assignment when you finally get it done as the sun is rising.
I'll definitely miss running bridge loops along the Esplanade (paved walk/runway along the Charles River). It's also gorgeous to walk around Cambridge just after a lot of snow has fallen. Leave a Comment
