The Lambda Phi Chapter House

Location

Our house is the southern half of the Lamson Building, a beautiful five-story mansion located at 351 Massachusetts Avenue in Cambridge, MA. Located just south of Central Square, we have the benefits of being surrounded by a wealth of restaurants, coffeeshops, museums, and more.

The chapter house is closer to main campus (Lobby 7) than some of the MIT housing options and is a five-minute walk from the Central Square T station, providing easy access to transportation around the Cambridge/Boston area. We also have both an MBTA bus stop and an MIT shuttle stop directly in front of our building.

Living Quarters

The chapter house has 38 rooms, all of which are spacious singles. We strive to ensure that rent for members is always less expensive than the lowest-rent room in official MIT housing. Shared restrooms are located in hallways and are regularly cleaned by professional staff hired by the chapter.

Members are free to make modifications to their rooms, and the chapter covers all or most of the cost of most permanent additions (e.g., painting, etc.).

Also known as the sign room, the pub was renovated by pledge class Wolfpack (2018).
Our makerspace has been used to handmake a raft to watch fireworks on the Charles and to build an LED dance floor.
The basement hot tub was originally installed in 1993 and was renovated by pledge class Tuxedos (2021).
The library houses a full grand piano as well as the chapter’s collection of books.
Renovated by pledge class Muses (2017), the movie room boasts theater lighting, three tiers of seating on comfortable couches, a TV, and a retractable projection screen.
