Cambridge in 1910 was a city of brick, river, and commerce as much as scholarship. Massachusetts Avenue ran over the Harvard Bridge, completed in 1891, linking the city to Boston's Back Bay across the Charles, and carriages, trolleys, and delivery wagons crowded its approaches every day. Along the river and the rail lines, machine shops, printers, and manufacturers turned out goods for markets far beyond Middlesex County. Working residents, many of them Irish, Italian, and Canadian-born families who had come for jobs in the mills and shops, lived in the streets just beyond the college walls, and their churches, saloons, and ballfields were as much a part of daily life as the campus.
