The best store in Boston if you are I terested in transit, history or both! I highly recommend this store. All the things I have gotten from here were reasonably priced.

Absolutely fantastic shop with so many transit oriented doodads, prints, signs and more. Their vintage postcard selection is top tier. Wyatt at the register is very knowledgeable and friendly. Would love to return.

A great spot to visit in Cambridge! If you love antique maps and postcards there is no better place to visit. The other antiques were very interesting as well including old Vogue and New Yorker magazines in such great condition. Very reasonable prices for everything and a great spot to buy a gift or just browse some history.

Always a nice shop to visit on a trip from out of state. Browse vintage transit items and maps from all over the world. The packing of most of the maps is already display / picture frame ready at an affordable price. Store photo current as of 7/12/23

Store is unapologetically anti-dog in a neighborhood where this is increasingly out of place. Not for me. So many local businesses selling gifts and antiques in this very walkable neighborhood that I’d rather support.

This is one of my favorite stores in Cambridge. I love antique maps and postcards, and Ward Maps is one of the few places in the area where I can get my fix. They have a particularly large selection of Boston-area maps, along with some awesome transportation memorabilia.

I love this place so much! The customer service is amazing, and it's really cool to just look through all the stuff they have in there. I'd really, really recommend this place and I'm definitely coming back.

Found on some old maps of two counties in Ireland that were framed as a gift. Good service and stock!

I'm a total n*** for subways, and I love the T, so this place was a must-visit. I picked up some cool MBTA gifts and prints, and the staff was very helpful and friendly.A must-visit for fans of Boston and the MBTA.

Trains maps old ephemera and Jim Croce on the radio. Best way to cope with seasonal depression.

I worked with the owner to custom print an oversized map and custom cut it to fit several frames to create a custom installation in my home that showed a historical map of the area. Steven worked with me to find the most appropriate solution to the slightly different aspect ratio working to address where the cut lines were and to fill in the gap space. He also custom scanned the map at a higher resolution which preserved all the detail at the blown up scale. I’m delighted that he was able to translate my vision to reality and I couldn’t be more pleased with the result. The website was easy to use to find exactly the map I wanted and he and his staff were a delight to work with. If you have any ideas like this that you’d need to partner with someone to bring to life this is the place to go!

I had the best experience with Ward Maps. I had received three maps as gifts years ago from their store all from the same year, but I didn't know the year because it wasn't on the front of the maps. Steven went out of his way to help me identify what year the maps were from so that I could purchase maps from the same year of different cities with special meaning to us. He could not have been more helpful or made things any easier. Amazing store and customer service! Thank you so much!

This is a transit lover's paradise. I came here on a whim after seeing they sold official MBTA goods, but they also carry a wealth of vintage Boston-area maps and transit ephemera (think old school subway tokens and schedules). Despite not growing up in the area, I wanted to pick up everything. Absolutely worth a visit, and naturally it is easy to get here via the T (just a quick walk from the Red Line).
