From the MHD site:

"At base of bench at south sidewalk of Memorial Drive, 500 feet west of entrance to MIT boat house at Charles River, diagonally across from 450 Memorial Drive, 25.2 feet from light pole. 16.5 feet from face of curb."

It should be noted that there is no bench in that concrete slab anymore (and there is a slab nearby that does have a bench). But the mark is readily visible.
