The campus
About this Boston University map poster
Boston University has roots going back to 1839 and is one of the largest private universities in the United States. Its main Charles River Campus stretches along Commonwealth Avenue, west of Kenmore Square. Unlike an enclosed campus, it follows the street, with buildings lined up for well over a mile.
On a map, the campus is a thin ribbon. On one side, the Charles River runs broad and straight, edged by Storrow Drive and the riverside paths. On the other side, the Massachusetts Turnpike and railway tracks cut a long line. Commonwealth Avenue runs through the middle, with trolley tracks in its central median.
A Boston University map poster shows this distinctive linear campus with unusual clarity. Buildings, dorms and athletic facilities sit side by side along the avenue, framed by water and transport corridors. The strong horizontal shape gives the print a sense of movement, like a map of a single long street.
