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.

Farlow Park, Newton Community Golf Course
Farlow Park, the community’s first park listed on the National Historic Register, is a 5-acre facility with a footbridge, toddler area and athletic fields. Burr Park offers a baseball field and a recreation building with game rooms. Eliot Memorial Park and Charlesbank Park are smaller spaces that offer peaceful escapes from the daily routine. Newton Community Golf Course, a public 18-hole course, is in the village's southeastern corner and includes water and sand bunkers. The Oak Square YMCA is 1 mile east and offers two fitness centers and an indoor pool. Many residents spend summer evenings and weekends at the Newton Yacht Club on the banks of the Charles River. The club, which requires membership, hosts annual events and leads boating safety courses. Nearby Daly Rink, an indoor ice-skating facility, resurfaces the ice every hour. The rink is available for birthday parties, public skating times and can also be rented for private use.
Kids can cruise on their scooters through Farlow Park in Newton Corner.
