The city of Cambridge numbers its neighborhoods, and ours happens to be #9. Other neighborhoods have names that supersede their number, like Agassiz (Neighborhood 8), but for some reason there's no alternate for #9. Books from the 1800s refer to the Brattle/Garden area as "Old Cambridge", which would be much better...a point of pride.

I think I'd go with "Raymond Park"- sounds sort of elegant, yes?

I wonder if you could petition the city council in your area to amend the neighborhood listing. I think neighborhood "branding" like that can help make a neighborhood more desirable and memorable. I like the sound of Old Cambridge. I bet a local news story might help get that rebranding off the ground and give the neighborhood a name to be proud of.
What is the origin of the unfetching place name, "Neighborhood Nine".???

Contributions:42To name an area with a mere number, might be ok in Cleveland, or New Mexico, but? in "History laden Cambrige"?? For Gross!!.. I suggest, instead: "Sherman-Garden" for the juncture of those two main arteries, and the gorgeous Fire House there.
