City of Cambridge Releases Cemetery Master Plan
The City of Cambridge is proud to announce the release of the Cemetery Master Plan, a comprehensive vision designed to extend the active operations of the Cambridge Cemetery while transforming it into a landscape and cultural resource with broad community appeal. Developed collaboratively by the Cambridge Cemetery and Department of Public Works staff, along with the Cambridge Cemetery Advisory Board, this plan represents the collective input of Cambridge residents, including former City officials, pastors, funeral home directors, and other community representatives. The Cemetery Master Plan outlines a series of strategic recommendations organized under three key goals and guiding principles.

Baldwin is a small, moderate-density residential neighborhood stretching from Harvard Square to Porter Square and to the Cambridge/Somerville border to the east. While it is predominantly residential, it also contains large portions of the Harvard University and Lesley University campuses.
