Made in Somerville

Royal H. Cycles of Union Square was nicely profiled by the Lovely Bicycle Blog. Somerville has gained a reputation as an incubator for design related boutiques. Also check out Design Annex a small design cooperative space located above Precinct Bar in Union Square. A March 2009 article in the Somerville Journal reported that, "Somerville is increasingly the center of design in Massachusetts with 124 design-related businesses, making the city number two in density of architectural and engineering service firms and design service firms in Massachusetts. Twenty creative industry businesses are active in the central business district of Union Square alone."

Nick, How do I make a new post rather than a comment? I would like to post up some facts and graphs about union square household income and demographics.

I guess I am still having some issues. I was able to place files into the blog but I do not see the "new post" link at the top right. All it says is this:

baldwinjr@cdm.com; Dashboard; Sign Out

Maybe we can figure it out in class.
