			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Harvard Square</strong> is the heart of Cambridge. It is a privilege to work in <strong>Harvard Square</strong> &#8211; Hammond Real Estate has its offices at Two Brattle Square, an office building located behind <a href="http://www.casablanca-restaurant.com/" target="_blank">Casablanca</a> and the <a href="http://www.brattlefilm.org/brattlefilm/index.html" target="_blank">Brattle Theatre</a> and across Mifflin Place from the <a href="http://www.harvestcambridge.com/" target="_blank">Harvest Restaurant</a>.</p>
<p>The Harvard Square Business Association has its own website at<a href="http://www.harvardsquare.com" target="_blank"> www.HarvardSquare.com</a>. There is always something happening in Harvard Square.</p>
<p>Properties in Harvard Square include the following:</p>
<p>975 Memorial Drive &#8211; Residences at the Charles</p>
<p>985 Memorial Drive &#8211; Longview</p>
<p>986 Memorial Drive &#8211; Longview</p>
<p>987 Memorial Drive &#8211; Barrington Court</p>

<p>I would be delighted to arrange to show you any of these properties or others now for sale.</p>
<p><strong> If you are considering buying or   selling real estate in Harvard Square   or   elsewhere in Cambridge,  I am here to help. </strong>I can be reached at <a href="mailto:ccherney@hammondre.com" target="_blank">ccherney@hammondre.com</a> or  617-733-8937. I am a Harvard graduate, a Cambridge resident and a top  broker in the city since 1999.</p>
<p>There is a new coffee table book out on Harvard Square entitled <em><a href="http://www.amazon.com/Harvard-Square-Illustrated-History-Since/dp/1584797479/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&amp;s=books&amp;qid=1254098978&amp;sr=8-1">Harvard   Square, An Illustrated History Since 1950.</a></em> This is author Mo   Lotman&#8217;s first book and it&#8217;s a keeper.</p>
<p>My own   Harvard Square experience dates back over 25 years to 1983. I had come   to Cambridge to visit my brother, a freshman at Harvard. I would return   in 1985 to begin my own journey through Harvard College &#8211; and Harvard   Square.</p>
<p>It was interesting to retrace in this book the history   of the Square since that time. However, even more interesting for me was   to see the photos and read about the history of Harvard Square in the   1950s, 60s, 70s &amp; early 1980s.</p>
<p>There is more to the history   of Harvard Square than is found in the covers of this book. However,   there is enough here to give one a good sense of the history of the   place over the last 60 years.</p>
<p>Some of my fondest Harvard Square   memories include&#8230;</p>
<p>Walking to the Tasty at 2 AM after finishing a   paper and finding good coffee and good company.</p>
<p>Sitting down to   breakfast at The Greenhouse Cafe early on Sunday mornings before the   Sunday brunch rush and being treated like royalty by the warm-hearted   wait-staff.</p>
<p>Seeing countless films at the Brattle, beginning with   <em><span style="text-decoration: underline"><a href="http://us.mg3.mail.yahoo.com/dc/launch?.gx=0&amp;.rand=07hmb1lgts30r" target="_blank">I Know Where I&#8217;m Going.</a></span> </em>I&#8217;ll never   forget the night there were over two hundred lined up outside and around   the corner to see the film adaptation of William Faulkner&#8217;s novel <a href="http://www.lib.umich.edu/william-faulkner/hollywood/hollywood.html" target="_blank">Sanctuary</a>.</p>
<p>Working at Wordsworth Bookstore:   the long line which would spring up at the cash register&#8230;Bruce at the   information desk&#8230;vacuuming after closing.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.yelp.com/search?find_desc=Cafe+Algiers&amp;find_loc=Cambridge%2C+MA" target="_blank">Cafe Algiers</a> down   under, before the 1990 renovation: a table outside, waiting to use the   small bathroom, talking.</p>
<p>Faulkner tutorial at <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/cafe-pamplona-cambridge" target="_blank">Cafe Pamplona</a> in   the blue haze of smoke from neighboring tables</p>
<p>Buying concert   tickets at <a href="http://www.yelp.com/biz/out-of-town-news-cambridge" target="_blank">Out Of Town News</a>&#8230;for Pink Floyd at Foxborough</p>
<p>Passing   through the Square on my Vespa&#8230;.many times on many different Vespas:)</p>
<p>Standing   in line on the sidewalk outside the gates to the Yard in a tux for the   350th Harvard celebration&#8230;</p>
<p>Crossing the Square after a heavenly   winter snow storm with cars few and far between and the silence almost   palpable&#8230;</p>
<p>Seeing Joe Williams perform live at the <a href="http://www.regattabarjazz.com/" target="_blank">Regatta   Bar</a>&#8230;</p>
<p>Browsing for books at McIntrye and Moore&#8230;</p>
<p>Dancing   downstairs at Henry IV&#8230;</p>
<p>Of course, as a real estate broker   it&#8217;s great to be located in the absolute heart of Harvard Square. My   desk is right behind the Brattle Movie Theatre!</p>
