Porter Square
Porter Square is a neighborhood of Cambridge, Massachusetts, located around the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Somerville Avenue. The Porter Square station is one of the stops on the Red Line, and of the Commuter Rail, both part of the MBTA.
Porter Square's most visible landmark is a 46-foot stainless steel kinetic sculpture by Susumu Shingu, entitled "Gift of the Wind."
Porter Square is approximately 200 yards from the border with Somerville, so "Porter Square" inhabitants include residents of both cities.
