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.
Arlington Storm Damage
Arlington Storm Damage If you weren’t in East Arlington last week you may have missed the terrible storm damage from last Wednesday’s “micro-burst.” According to local residents we spoke to, town employees and local tree companies did a super job – clearing downed trees and cleaning up in less than 48 hours.
“Micro” seems to be the wrong way to describe this freak storm. In just minutes more than 100 trees were knocked over and countless branches broken in a large part of town – on both sides of Mass Ave from Walgreens to Route 16 . It’s terribly sad and a huge loss to the local landscape and tree canopy.
Urban trees have it hard enough under normal weather conditions – or what passes for normal nowadays. You could see evidence of this year’s drought around the uprooted trees. The very dry exposed earth around several toppled trees looked more like sand than dirt.
My Dad and I drove around on Friday. We wouldn’t have been able to drive through East Arlington just a day or so before – streets were littered with trees. There were still some downed trees and branches that had yet to be cleared but it was amazing how much had been done in such a short period of time. Kudos to all who worked so hard on the cleanup.
