Northwest Building at Harvard Law School

The building’s façade is now visible.

From The May-June 2010 Issue

As spring came to Cambridge, the shrouds that had covered the Law School’s new building during winter construction came down, revealing its stone façade. Occupancy is expected in late 2011.

Published in the May-June 2010 print issue under the headline “The Law School’s Northwest Corner Shapes Up,” in the John Harvard's Journal section.
