Harvard and MIT do pay millions to the city of Cambridge already. It's why Harvard wants to move to Boston as they won't make it pay

TIL Boston colleges don’t have to pay taxes and that Harvard wants to break up with Cambridge.

Harvard wants to move to Boston? How’d they do that? Opening up a separate campus and “domiciling” there?

Harvard owns more real estate in Allston than in Cambridge.

Take a look at Harvard’s plan for developing that land.

They’re already doing it.

They’ll never give up the Cambridge campuses for undergraduates but the majority of future expansion will take place on the other side of the river.
