The John W. Weeks Memorial Bridge, usually called the Weeks Footbridge (or simply Weeks Bridge), is a pedestrian bridge over the Charles River, located four miles northwest of downtown Boston in the Harvard University campus. It connects Harvard’s original Cambridge campus with the Harvard Business School and many of the school’s athletic facilities in Allston. John W. Weeks was a longtime U.S. Representative, and later Senator, from Massachusetts, as well as Secretary of War in the Harding and Coolidge administrations. The Weeks Bridge opened in 1927 to carry pedestrian traffic between the Harvard Business School's newly built Allston campus and the Business School's former home, Harvard's traditional campus in Cambridge. Its concrete underbelly conceals tentacles of the University's steam, electrical, and communications networks.The bridge is a popular vantage point from which to enjoy the Head of the Charles Regatta. An abrupt bend in the river prompts most boats to crowd through the bridge's center span, and collisions have occurred when coxswains could not make themselves heard above the cheering of the crowd.

The Harvard Houses Historic District is a historic district encompassing seven residential colleges of Harvard University. The district is roughly bounded by Mt. Auburn, Grant, and Cowperwaite Streets, Banks Street and Putman Avenue, Memorial Drive, and JFK Street (formerly Boylston Street) in Cambridge, Massachusetts. The contributing buildings to the district are predominantly residential dormitory buildings which were constructed between 1913 and 1930 as part of Harvard's House system, and are Georgian Revival in style. There are three small residential buildings which were built in the 18th and 19th centuries, and a number of non-contributing later buildings, including among others the towers of Leverett House and the modern portion of Quincy House at 58 Plympton Street. The buildings are an imposing presence in the streetview of Memorial Drive between Western Avenue and the Anderson Memorial Bridge, but their massing is interrupted by mature tree plantings, and they are organized to provide courtyards and quadrangles in the interior of the district.The district was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
