Mayor Joseph A. Curtatone and Ward 1 Alderman Matthew McLaughlin invite all residents to the groundbreaking ceremony for the new Symphony Park on Thursday, October 2 at 3:30 p.m. Located at the corner of Pearl and Florence Streets in East Somerville, the design of the park is the result of a series of community meetings during which residents expressed a desire for amenities for multigenerational users.

There's a rare opportunity to name a Somerville street and Mayor Joseph Curtatone is seeking your suggestions. Great River Road in Assembly Square runs along Baxter Park and is then interrupted by a bend where it meets Artisan Way. To avoid confusion for residents, businesses, visitors, and emergency personnel, the City has decided to rename the lower portion of the street, which runs parallel to the train tracks. (Please see attached map.)
