| Here's
our house:
The mustard yellow one on the corner where Fayerweather Street turns
left.

When the landlord had
the house painted, he opened up this stained glass window in our living
room. Can you believe that someone had walled it in? We love how it
changes color with the light...

Helpful hint: Fayerweather is a
one-way street. Hence the purple arrows. And yes, it turns left,
right in front of our house.
180 Fayerweather St Apt 2
Cambridge, MA 02138-1261

From the T: take the Red Line to
Harvard Square. From the upper bus platform, take the 74 or 78 bus. They
both go out Concord Avenue and stop at Fayerweather Street. Walk up Fayerweather
Street past Copley Street and turn right to follow Fayerweather as it
turns - our house is there on the corner, on your right.
If the weather is nice and you're wearing
comfortable shoes, by all means walk out Concord Avenue to Walden Street,
turn right & then left on Fayerweather. Our house will be on your
left, just before Fayerweather turns left. It takes about 20 minutes.
Or you could walk out Garden Street to Walden & turn left, then right
onto Fayerweather. Same amount of time, a little quieter (no buses on
Garden Street). We're right smack
dab in between Garden St & Concord Ave.
Driving from Harvard Square: Follow
the directions above for walking from the T, except for the comfortable
shoes part. Well, you can wear comfortable shoes if you want, it's just
not as important if you're not walking...
From the West: Take Route 2 to Route
16 West/3 South (go to the right towards Boston/Watertown at the end of
the divided highway). Pass the Alewife T Station and Fresh Pond Mall and
go left at the first rotary. Go straight through the next rotary onto
Concord Avenue (between the Sozio appliance store and the gas station).
Turn left onto Walden Street (traffic light), and take the second left
onto Fayerweather Street. Our house is on the corner on the left, at Hazel,
Field and Fayerweather Streets. It's not as hard as it sounds.
From downtown: Take Mass Ave North
across the Charles, and follow it through Kendall, Central, Harvard &
Porter Squares. Okay, the squares are not really marked or anything, although
you might notice the signs for the T stations that have those names on
them.
Anyway just stay on Mass Ave. Just past
the big T station and the Out of Town News stand at Harvard Square, the
road forks with two lanes in each fork. Take the right lane of the left
fork, following Mass Ave & in a little less than a mile you'll see
the Porter Square Shopping Center with a big Star Market grocery &
a CVS on the right. Soon after that you'll turn left onto Walden street,
at the traffic light with a KFC on the corner. Go through traffic lights
at Sherman and Garden Streets and Fayerweather Street is the first street
on the right after Garden. Our house is on the left, just before Fayerweather
turns left.
