Campus Architecture - MIT

Another Cambridge campus visit, this time at MIT. Again I had to prioritize which buildings to visit per my travel companion’s request. I chose the Eero Saarinen buildings and the recently completed School of Architecture and Planning.

Campus Architecture, Harvard - Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts, 1963

J and I were recently in Cambridge, Massachusetts where I had an opportunity for a brief architecture moment on campus at Harvard University. That’s right - I could just pick one place to photograph and I chose the Carpenter Center for the Visual Arts.

As Le Coubusier’s only structure in North America, this was an excellent choice!

Brutalist Quebec

Of course we walked to and saw the many charming historic buildings of Old Quebec. But I was thrilled to find so many brutalist buildings, too, all within a short walk of each other.
