Inman Square is located on the northeastern tier of Cambridge, Mass., where Cambridge and Hampshire streets intersect. It goes south to Broadway and covers an area of side streets that go off the main thoroughfares. Inman Square has a population comprised of a mix of post-graduate couples, singles, and immigrants.
Inman Square is an almost unknown area of Cambridge. It is not on the T, which makes getting there difficult, and unless you live here or know and love it, you might just never find it. The closest T stop is Central Square, which is a brisk 15-minute walk away. Commuter bus service is limited.
Inman Square is a colorful area in more ways than one. The storefronts are brightly painted, which makes for a warm and welcome atmosphere, and it has a very ethnic feel with great food and local shopping. There are few chains here, but you will find a Walgreens and a Kentucky Fried Chicken. The neighborhood has been known over the years for its great improv, and both Jane Curtin and Jay Leno got their start in the clubs on Inman Square.
Many wonderful Victorian houses are in this neighborhood. Many of them are condo or apartment conversions. There are some single-family homes, but the majority are row houses. An area with tree-lined streets and wide sidewalks, this neighborhood begs to be strolled and enjoyed.
Paine Park offers a place for children to play in the midst of this city neighborhood and in the summer offers a water feature that is also a piece of landscape art. There is also a wall mural in the park by Mela Lyman, a well-known local artist.
