Bradstreet Gate, University gate at Harvard Yard, Cambridge, US.
The wrought-iron Bradstreet Gate stands on the perimeter fence of Harvard Yard, across Quincy Street and Cambridge Street from Memorial Hall.
In 1997, Harvard University dedicated this gate to Anne Bradstreet, marking 25 years since female students began living in freshman dormitories.
A plaque installed in 2003 features text from Anne Bradstreet's poetry, commemorating her status as the first published American poet.
The gate serves as an entry point for students, faculty, and visitors accessing Harvard Yard from the intersection of Cambridge and Quincy Streets.
The structure represents a significant milestone in Harvard's evolution, particularly regarding the integration of women into university life.
