Somerville Community Path
Davis Square to Lovejoy Wharf, end-to-end on the new Somerville extension.
Most people know the Somerville Community Path as the stretch between Davis Square and Lowell Street. But it now extends all the way to Lechmere and Cambridge Crossing, connecting to the Charles River paths — and from there, straight to Lovejoy Wharf.
