Charles River Embankment from Harvard Bridge (14410515831)
Bring a little Boston home.
Square Magnet · 4 × 4 inches
Put the day's appointments where they are easy to find, with this magnet beside the notes. The Charles embankment is seen from Harvard Bridge, giving the riverbank itself a place in the picture rather than making the crossing its sole subject.
A Boston Transit Commission photograph records the Charles River embankment from Harvard Bridge on October 5, 1910. Later park expansions and Storrow Drive changed this shoreline. The historical view preserves an earlier stage in that transformation, when engineering along the river was reshaping the city's relationship with its water.
The embankment connects the basin's engineering with later park expansion and road changes, keeping an earlier shoreline stage within Boston's riverfront story. Use it where the daily notes gather, with a picture beside the reminders you need to see again.
