Harvard students won’t need to schlep into Boston anymore (not that we ever do) in order to see the work of architect Henry N. Cobb ’47, who in 1955 co-founded a now-famous firm with I.M. Pei. An award-winning former chairman of the Department of Architecture at the Harvard Graduate School of Design (GSD), Cobb has finally built something in his own backyard—literally. Taking...
