You are in a GREAT neighborhood for finding street parking (you'll have a sticker that allows parking all over Cambridge!)<BR/>But more. There are so many places you'll want to drive to around Cambridge. The Cape, sure. But New Hampshire and Vermont, too. Only an hour or two away. And don't forget Rhode Island (I could tell you soooo much). Without a car, oh guy you won't like it. Sure, you can rent one when you need to, but to escape for a couple of hours even out to Concord or .... (well, I'll save that for another time).
