Downtown Cambridge is experiencing a bourgeoning renaissance of sorts. And we’re here for it. Hip boutiques. Fantastic restaurants. Chic condos. Bumpin’ patios. All framed in a European-esque historic town lined with stone buildings and cut through by the mighty Grand River.
Haven’t been in a while? Then tour with us as we showcase five Downtown Cambridge personalities decked out in garb and accessories from five Downtown Cambridge businesses, making their way in and out of five Downtown Cambridge destinations. A taste of what’s on offer. Believe the hype.
