Residential village with easy access to Boston
Newton Corner is one of 13 villages that make up Newton, just 6 miles west of Downtown Boston. Famous Fig Newton bars, first baked at F.A. Kennedy Steam Bakery in Cambridge in 1891, got their name from this community dating back to the late 17th century. The arrival of the Boston and Worcester Railroad in the mid-19th century transformed Newton from a small village with farms into a major manufacturing hub. The area continued to expand residentially through the 20th century, before the construction of the Massachusetts Turnpike in the 1960s resulted in the demolition of several historic neighborhoods and most of Newton Corner’s village center. Residential renovations and construction of mid-rise buildings continue to this day.
Interstate 90 is easily accessed by Washington Square residents.
There is so much that Newton Corner offers and all within walking distance.
