We were out taking pictures of the bricks in Excavation Unit 7 on Burial Hill in Plymouth yesterday and Doug Bolender put together another 3D view. This one is can be viewed on the web, and does not require downloading like the last one. EU7 is where, according to the 1874 Beers map stood a school, probably the one that gave the street its name. You can see the whole map at the Boston Public Library (Leventhal Map Center).
