10 Akron Street

Architect Kyu Sung Woo designed the new housing complex at 10 Akron Street for Harvard University's grad school. the complex sits on the Charles River in Cambridge, MA and was constructed for Harvard's latest housing initiative to provide room&board for 50% of its graduate students, faculty members. the new complex at at 10 Akron Street fits 215 people in over 30 different suite designs. also in the building: a fitness room, study lounge spaces, a multipurpose room, and a garage that extends under the building, its courtyard, and a new public open space along Memorial Drive. reminds me of the new 56 Leonard St complex. i would love to wake up in there every morning.
