4. MIT’s Stata Center
The Massachusetts Institute of Technology is one of the most famous universities in the world, but ‘gramming MIT isn’t the trendiest of #Boston activities. That’s a classic missed opportunity. There’s plenty to see around campus, not the least of which is the architecture. The most well-known Boston buildings tend to be the oldest, as the city was the site of many pivotal events in early colonial history. By contrast, the Stata Center at MIT is a newer building, one designed boundary-pushing in mind. Its creativity is meant to be an outward representation of the cutting-edge research being done inside, which houses the Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Laboratory.

6. This swanky, stately traditional clubroom
With its fireplace, leather chairs, and chandelier lights, this traditional clubroom feels like something out of a scene from a movie, the kind of exclusive place movers and shakers might commiserate over a martini.

7. The king of boxing gyms
This boxing gym combines the tradition and heart of a traditional boxing gym with the amenities of an upscale modern gym, a one-two punch that’s great news for your Instagram feed. Posing in the ring with gloves on or even throwing down for a friendly sparring match make for fun, action-packed pictures. Plus, there’s a great overhead light that evenly illuminates the ring, so you can avoid flickering fluorescent lighting.

This two-floor production studio gives you all the tools to create striking images. There’s ample professional lighting equipment included for those studio-perfect shots against any colored backdrop you choose. But since the main area is also on the ground floor, you can open the south-facing, 9-foot-wide loading dock door to let natural light flow into the room. If you’re interested in shooting video, there’s even a 70-inch 4K television to watch realtime playback.
