LOCATION  |  HARVARD SQUARE

13 Mellen Street
Cambridge, MA 02138

In the mind’s eye, this neighborhood is the “Cambridge” everyone imagines: Colonial and Georgian brick university architecture, independent coffeehouses and booksellers, a fascinating mix of music and tweed and tattoos, and thousands of college students crossing the web of streets here in 02138—the self-proclaimed “most opinionated zip code in America.” This neighborhood is home to some of the city’s quintessential residential architecture—rangey Victorians, wooden rowhouses, and the iconic brick Harlow buildings of the 1930s.
