Welcome to Centers and Squares

As a Cambridge real estate agent, the city squares of Cambridge, Somerville and Medford and the town centers of Arlington, Watertown and Belmont, Massachusetts are my home turf. And as a lifelong New Englander who’s lived within twenty miles of Boston most of my life, I can introduce you to other nearby towns as we search for your new home. If you’re planning to sell your home in Cambridge, MA or nearby you’ll find plenty of info about the home selling process here too. Questions? Send me an email or call me at 617-504-1737.

Antique Boot Scrapers

Antique Boot Scrapers at the Emerson House

Antique Boot Scrapers   One of my favorite things to find outside an older house is a vintage bootscraper.

Many a New England front porch or granite threshold has a wrought iron or cast iron boot scraper or two.

Older boot scrapers were simply designed like the pair at right at the Emerson House in Concord.

Victorian versions are more ornate and eventually figural versions such as a Scotty Dog or Dachshund were produced.

But give me the simple lines of an early bootscraper outside an old New England house.
