Watertown Information
About Watertown
Watertown is a city in the Greater Boston area of Massachusetts, just over 5 miles outside of the big city itself. Though it’s close to a major urban center, Watertown retains its more small community feel, making it a wonderful place to visit and experience the charms of New England. Things to do in Watertown
Watertown is primarily a residential community rather than a tourist destination, so it’s attractions are limited. It does have two museums, however. The Armenian Library and Museum of America is stationed in the city, which is home to one of the largest Armenian populations in the country. There is also The Plumbing Museum, which is exactly what it sounds like. You can see performances at one of the city’s two theaters: Arsenal Center for the Arts and the New Repertory Theatre. And, if you’re feeling energetic, venture to the Central Rock Gym to do some climbing or to Launch Trampoline Park. Because you’re close, you should also take the 20 minute drive over to Boston and explore the main tourist attractions of that city, including walking the three-mile Freedom Trail to see the city’s historic monuments, visiting the neighborhood of Beacon Hill, and taking in a game at Fenway Park. Day trips from Watertown
Boston is so close that it hardly counts as a day trip, so if you want to get out and about venture a bit farther. If it’s summer, head to the Cape and spend a day at the beach, or visit the little town of Rockport on Cape Ann and spend a day strolling the charming shops and cafes. If you’re not going somewhere to appreciate the weather, check out historical sites such as Salem, which is perhaps most famous for the witch trials that took place in colonial days, but it packed with other interesting sites as well. History lovers can also visit nearby spots such as Plymouth, where the Pilgrims are famous for settling after journeying from England, and Concord, where literary figures such as Ralph Waldo Emerson and Bronson Alcott made their home. Watertown accommodations
There are six different neighborhoods in Watertown: Bemis, Brigham Historic District, Watertown Square, Coolidge Square, East Watertown, and West End. The Coolidge Square neighborhood, in East Watertown, is a beautiful residential area centered around the Coolidge Square itself, which has multiple Middle Eastern markets, three parks and the Arts Center. The Brigham Historic District has homes built in the late 19th or early 20th century. Watertown Square is the city center, which is desirable because it is highly walkable. And, if you’re looking for less expensive rentals, check the West End. Transportation in Watertown
Watertown is served by the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA), which serves the Greater Boston Area. Bus lines 71 and 73 take visitors to Harvard Square, and the 502 and 504 go to Boston from Watertown Yard. Bus fares are $2 on board for a local ride. Once you get to Boston, the MBTA also has subway lines. Vacation Rentals in Watertown
