	Harvard Square - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Harvard Square is a large triangular area in the center of Cambridge, Massachusetts, at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue, Brattle Street, and John F. Kennedy Street.
		Adjacent to the historic heart of Harvard University, Harvard Yard, the Square (as it is called locally) functions as a commercial center for Harvard students, as well as residents of western Cambridge and the inner western suburbs of Boston.
		Harvard Square used to have many new and used bookstores, but few are left today, although the 2005 opening of the independent Raven Used Books on JFK Street seems to have bucked this overall trend.
