Dana Hill Neighborhood

Known today as Dana Hill, in 1640 the area around Dana Street between Cambridge Street and Massachusetts Avenue consisted of the Old Planting Fields and Small Lot Hill. Inheriting a home that had been constructed on the Old Planting Fields in 1645, Francis Dana, a delegate to the Continental Congress, signer of the Articles of Confederation and Chief Justice of the Massachusetts Supreme Court, purchased the plots of Small Lot Hill. The consolidated land became known as Dana Hill.

The Dana Hill subunit is located in the Harvard Street Historic District, an area between Harvard and Ellery Streets. Seven well-preserved homes built in the 1800s are located in the district, which in 1982 was added to the National Register of Historic Places.

Since 1889, the Cambridge Public Library main branch, located in the city's geographical center, has been at its present site. Accommodating up to 200 persons, the high-tech library features free Wi-Fi, nearly 100 public access computers, seven community meeting areas and an outdoor seating area, perfect for summertime reading.

Residents of Cambridge who hold a valid library card can now access more than 5,700 online courses in business, technology and other creative skills through Lynda.com. They can also access Kanopy, a video streaming service that includes over 30,000 theatrical and training films and documentaries.

History buffs will find the library's Cambridge Room especially interesting. The room houses nearly 200 collections of the city's history from the 1600s to the present.

Located directly in front of the library, John Lorentz Park ranks fourth among the Boston area's finest bicycle path venues. Pet friendly, the park also features a playground and tennis courts.
