Harvard Bridge

Bring a little Boston and Cambridge home.

Ceramic Mug · White · 11 oz

Before the day fills up, a warm cup and a seat at the kitchen table leave a little room to notice the picture. Harvard Bridge's long span puts Massachusetts Avenue across the Charles, bringing an everyday Boston and Cambridge route into the river's open setting.

Harvard Bridge's initial construction ran from 1887 to 1891, followed by later alterations recorded in the Historic American Engineering Record. The crossing carries Massachusetts Avenue between Boston and Cambridge. Its long river span places an everyday route within the broader history of engineering and movement across the Charles.

The crossing connects the two cities' streets with a history of construction and alteration, keeping daily passage alongside the engineering recorded for the bridge. Use it for the next cup at the table or by your desk.
