Wondering what’s your neighbor reading?
If your town has a “One Book” or a “Community Reads” program you may be reading the same book.
Local libraries sponsor the programs and encourage townspeople to read the selected book. Lectures and other events about the book’s subject are offered by the library and local groups.

Watertown Real Estate Sales – July 2010
We’ve been wondering if real estate sales would fall a bit after the end of the homebuyer credit. Here’s the first of the monthly real estate reports - a rundown of Watertown real estate sales for July 2010. Take a look – there has been a post-credit drop in sales.
Homes On the Market in Watertown
143 Watertown homes were listed for sale in the MLS on July 31, 2010 priced between $169,900 and $1,575,000. That’s 15% fewer properties than were listed for sale at the end of June. Typically, there’s lower inventory in the summer with many sellers choosing to wait until the Fall to list their homes for sale. This can be an opportunity for sellers with fewer homes competing with theirs.

It does appear that some of the spring market sales were pushed into the earlier months of the year as buyers tried to take advantage of the credit. If inventory continues to grow there may be pressure on prices in some segments of the market.

Watertown DPW Tire Drop Off
Watertown DPW Tire Drop Off Nowadays you really have to think about how to dispose of unwanted items. Inconvenient – but a good thing if it makes us think twice before acquiring something.
Disposing of tires is a tricky one. If you’re not interested in making a flower planter cut from a discarded tire – and I don’t see too many of those around the city - there’s just not that much to do with your old tires.
For residents of Watertown there’s a solution - a tire drop off day planned for this weekend. Only tires will be collected – no rims.
Free of charge and open only to Watertown residents. An ID showing proof of Watertown residency is required.
The tire dropoff is scheduled for Saturday, May 8, 2010 from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at the Watertown Public Works at 124 Orchard Street.
