Boston Photograph Receives Stacks of Exposure!

 

Our first day in Cambridge, Mass. during Memorial Day weekend I snapped this picture of a very unique piece of architecture. 

I spotted it across the Charles River. We were on the Cambridge side and this building is in Boston. 

My research later determined this to be a fairly new building at Boston University. 

Here’s a link to my post from our interesting and amazing Boston visit. This was my first time in “Beantown.”

Fast forward to August 11- my birthday! I’m reading the Sunday paper and see the next reader photo contest topic is “stacks.” 

Right away this image came to my mind. 

I had a good feeling my photo would be selected by the contest’s editor. As you can read in the caption, this is Boston University’s Center for Computing and Data Sciences. It opened less than two years ago in December 2022.

“Iconic and Iconoclastic” is the headline of a BU post about the 19-floor building with “convention-bending design inside and out that makes it an iconic presence on Central Campus.”  The address is 665 Commonwealth Ave. 

This is the 12th photograph of mine, over the years, to be included in the newspaper’s Sunday feature.
