Spanning the scenic Charles River in Cambridge, the John W. Weeks Footbridge and Anderson Memorial Bridge connect Harvard’s main campus to its athletic facilities, providing fantastic views of river activity and the city skyline. The Weeks Footbridge, completed in 1927, is a pedestrian-only crossing, popular among joggers and photographers seeking postcard-worthy shots. The Anderson Memorial Bridge, opened in 1915, sports a classic brick and limestone design that complements Harvard’s historic aesthetic. With easy access to nearby paths, these bridges also provide a peaceful spot to watch rowers glide by or take a leisurely stroll along the water, soaking up the collegiate atmosphere.
