The Liberty Hotel

The last couple of times I have been to Cambridge, MA for work I have had the pleasure of staying at The Liberty Hotel. The hotel has a hip architectural vibe to it and the best part is it was once the Charles Street Jail (original built in 1851). The jail was converted in Sept 2007 into the swank hotel it is today after being vacant for years. The property is owned by Mass General Hospital and still retains several original elements from it's years housing the morally corrupt.

So on my last trip a few weeks ago (shout out to my Cambridge colleagues!), one of the consultants I am working on a project with was kind enough to share his pictures he took (because I'm lame like that and had never thought to take pics of the hotel myself until now).

Here's a view from the lobby...stunning right?

And a view from the outside (it's much more impressive when lit at night..but still great bones!)

This is just a cool shot of some of the ironwork that still exists from the old jail days...thought my sister Moira might dig this picture!

I wish I had more pictures to share as this is only a glimpse into the beauty of the place. If you're ever in the neighborhood (and can catch a fare special 'cause I ain't gonna lie, if you don't have a company discount it'll cost you a pretty penny) I highly recommend you staying here.
