1. The library terrace links large, modernist Ladd (1973) with smaller, historic Coram (1902).

2. Roger Williams’ expansion-restoration includes a pavilion-style addition.

3. A lively crossroads, thanks to recent construction (Commons, Alumni Walk) and renovation (Hedge, the Bill, Garcelon).

4. Known as the Merrill Grove, a stand that’s endured a century of facilities expansion. Big grove!

5. The site of future residences — with ample green space preserved.

6. Parker and other historic buildings once had flat roofs. But President Phillips wanted gables, so on they came.
