Founded in 1630, the venerable college town of Cambridge has long been one of the nation\u2019s intellectual centers. Anchored to the banks of the Charles River by both Harvard University and\u00a0the\u00a0<\/span>Massachusetts Institute of Technology, the city blends its\u00a0storied\u00a0<\/span>past and erudite character with a rich serving of arts and culture. Today, the stamp of gentrification on Harvard Square and the gleaming biotech development flanking M.I.T., a.k.a. \u201cGenetown,\u201d make it harder to tune into Cambridge\u2019s legendary countercultural vibe of used bookstores and punk rockers. Still, the\u00a0outward-looking\u00a0<\/span>citizens, known as Cantabrigians, keep finding ways to express their funky, geeky flair, be it via political protests, copious bike lanes or science-driven cuisine and mixology.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n Explore street view, find things to do in Cambridge and sign in to your Google account to save your map.<\/p>\n<\/figcaption>\n
