The map

About this Princeton map poster

Princeton is best known for its university, and the campus dominates the map with a dense field of quadrangles, courtyards and footpaths south of Nassau Street. Nassau Hall sits at its historic heart. In 1783 the Continental Congress met there, which made Princeton the capital of the United States for a few months.

South of the campus, Lake Carnegie stretches in a long, narrow line. It was created in the early 1900s for the university's rowing crews, and the Delaware and Raritan Canal runs alongside it. North of Nassau Street, Palmer Square and the town's residential areas form a quiet pattern of tree-lined blocks and winding lanes.

The wider map takes in the Institute for Advanced Study, where Albert Einstein worked for the last two decades of his life, and the ground of the 1777 Battle of Princeton. A Princeton map poster brings campus, water and town together in one composition, detailed at the center and open at the edges.

01

Campus quadrangles

The university's courtyards and paths form an intricate, almost lace-like pattern south of Nassau Street. They are the most detailed part of the map and anchor the whole composition.

02

Lake Carnegie

The long, slender lake runs along the southern edge of campus. Together with the parallel canal, it draws a clean pair of lines across the lower part of the poster.

03

Nassau Street

The town's main street divides campus from downtown. It is a single straight axis, with shops and Palmer Square on one side and university gates on the other.

Why Princeton

A map that means something

Princeton maps are often bought for graduations, reunions and faculty moves, and they make a meaningful gift for anyone who studied or taught here. Add a class year, department or dorm name to the title, and let the coordinates mark the campus.

Paper and Sand give an archival feel that suits the old stone buildings, and Blueprint appeals to engineers and physicists. Classic black & white and Noir are also available. Order a matte print, framed if you like, or download all six sizes for $9.
