I have been on campus for over a year and a half and am confident with my sense of the layout of the main streets and side streets. These are relatively accurate in my sketch. What is different is the structure of the buildings. I do not necessarily pay close attention to the size, width, and location of some building on, for example, Mass Ave. or Mt. Auburn street. Based on my memory, I was not able to recall walking paths or the exact curve or length of some streets. I would say that the main structure of my map is fairly accurate as well as the shape of the Harvard River dorms. I would suppose that my sketch and the Google map display of Harvard Square are different because I have not had a sharp awareness of the design and arrangement of buildings in Harvard Square. I hope that this class allows me to be more critical in viewing the structure and organization of this town. I hope that if I pay more attention, I will see Harvard in a new light and relate to the town more closely.
