Summary

Description
English: Harvard University map, circa 1945, Cambridge, Massachusetts. This image is a cropped version from the Library of Congress online collection for the Harvard Loeb collection; see catalog information below. It is clearly outdated, as it does not reflect current plans - for example, the Boston Elevated Railway Yards have been a park for many years. Nonetheless this diagram shows the position of the older buildings at Harvard.

This image is believed to be in the public domain; see statement below.
