Medford Historical Society Papers, Volume 30., When we were a good old town. (search)
on High street near the residence of Deacon Train, on request of Dudley Hall and others. We have not consulted the town records relative to these, but as Grace church had just been erected opposite the residence of Deacon Train, also the neighboring residence of J. W. Tufts, a permanent grade was a desirable one to have fixed. But we see little of sidewalk on Winthrop street now sixty years later, and no houses on either side save one built seven years ago next the Puffer's corner of that day, but note that at last the old wooden bridge is succeeded by the new one just opened, and that the Winthrop street of today extends from Winchester to Somerville lines, crossing the Mystic Valley parkway, unthought of in that old day. The old Watson house, where President Washington came to visit Colonel Brooks in 1790, the Deacon Train and the Roach houses are gone, and the cellar hole and the vacant land along the permanent grade, under the modern name of Traincroft, await new residents.
