Map That Campus XI

In celebration of the 11th edition (and because I enjoy presenting my hints in doublets) I present this week's mystery campus as a dialogue. Have fun:

I: Hello X, what a coincidence, I came out for a nice brisk stroll and I saw you passing by.
X: Funny, you tell me the same story everyday.
I: So will they solve it?
i-3bb8e94d58b0f4785d6affaff65a48ec-campus11b.jpgX: There are clues.
I: Yes the clues ... they must find the unifying idea.
X: But there may not be enough.
I: Clues?i-92c090329ad7a1498f3d4826e8369d14-campus11a.jpg
X: You can never have too many clues.
I: Not this again.
i-88dc95ff31c73c9827ee023b0a0621a8-campus11c.jpgX: Formally, to represent reality within a ...
I: Yes I know, we've heard this all before.
X: In any case I have no time for their riddles.
I: What plans do you have now?
i-b1bafc1fe38c27b15300b71230eec728-campus11d.jpgX: I thought that I would pass by and look at the book. I need inspiration.
I: Yes I remember now, you have Anselm on the mind.
X: I do.
I: Well since we have arrived at the destination, I shall leave you.
X: Well it was a pleasure, as usual.i-11a67acae4edc611a9a2defe2e89991d-campus11e.jpg
I: Shall we meet again?
X: You mean, I presume, the same place and time that we meet every evening.
I: Yes I believe that your analysis is well thought out.
X: Until tomorrow then.
I: Yes indeed.

Well, I am "relatively" sure it's Princeton, right?

Indeed it is Princeton, though if we want to be pedants (assuming I'm right and one of our chatters is none other than Einstein [the other being Godel]), the Institute is sort of separate. Kind of.

Very clever. Philip must be right. Einstein and Godel were walking partners. How nice.

Correct.

I wasn't sure where the institute was, however Google Earth did supply info on other points of interest. The first and last pictures are significant.
