Welcome to the Mid-Cambridge Neighborhood Association Web Site

Our aim is to reach more of our residents with helpful information.  Perhaps new residents will learn about the association and join us, or simply learn about the neighborhood and the shops, services, and facilities in the area.  New and longtime residents may find our calendar of events useful.  If you are interested in issues affecting the neighborhood, you may want to consult the archives of back issues of the M-C News.  However you use the site, we’d like to hear your comments and suggestions about how to make it serve you and your neighbors.
