This means you should look for a fragrant tree that is a rich, deep green color. (0 comments)

real estate: Watertown, MA Property Tax Increase!
- 12/08/10 02:14 PM
Hello all and Watertown residents. How will this increase in property taxes affect your Real Estate holdings - be it industrial, commercial, or residential? Sometimes I wonder what we are indeed getting with all these tax increases. I know that prices have been rising, but at the same time many budget cuts have been happening within our town. I can say after attending the last Watertown town council meeting that there are some great improvements being done to our school system so perhaps that is a key reason for the tax increases. I hope this increase in taxes will not have any effect (0 comments)

- 11/10/10 10:44 AM
Charlestown, founded originally by British colonists, began as an independent neighborhood. British colonists founded Charlestown across the Shawmut Peninsula's harbor before Boston was established. In 1775, the neighborhood was severely damaged subsequent to the Battle of Bunker Hill. Charlestown was built again in the 19th century after the revolution.
