Assembly Square

Assembly Square is an area in Somerville that officially came into being in 2014. This is an area with tons of retail, grocery stores including a Trader Joe's, tons of restaurants, a Starbucks, and lots more. It's right along the Mystic River, so it's a great area for walking, running or biking as well. It's also extremely convenient when it comes to public transportation as it has its' own Orange line T stop as well as being around the corner from Rt-93 for driving commuters. Assembly Square is directly opposite the Ten Hills neighborhood - if you are looking to be extremely close to shops and retail, Ten Hills is an excellent area to target in your home buying search.
