Nestled in between Ivy League institution Harvard and the science and technology hub that is MIT, Central Square is the melting pot of Cambridge. Constantly bustling with people from all walks of life, regardless of the time of day, the square is packed with ethnic restaurants and is home to one of Boston’s most revered music venues. Be sure to bring some green– a lot of hot spots are cash-only.
Graffiti Alley’s ever-changing facade is perhaps the most popular of Central Square’s street art collection. Walk under a canopy of colorful panes of glass of what is also officially known as Richard B. “Rico” Modica Way, and you’ll find layers upon layers of spray paint and stickers.
