Conductor's Building

The Conductor's Building stretches 144 feet in length and 20 feet in width, constructed primarily with brick materials near Mount Auburn Street.

Built in 1912 as the headquarters of Boston Elevated Railway's 7th Division, this structure remains the sole survivor from the Cambridge subway construction era.

The structure represents early 20th-century railway administration architecture and maintains its position in the Harvard Square Historic District designation.

Following extensive renovations from 2014 to 2017, the building transformed into a restaurant space as part of an adjacent hotel development project.

The building's original layout included conductor offices and a lobby on the first floor, with an assembly hall and public waiting room on the second.
