Meet The Mix Porter Square. ✨ Porter Square Shopping Center now has a new name, one inspired by the neighborhood it serves.
For decades, this place has been part of everyday life here in Cambridge. It’s where you grab groceries, meet a friend for coffee, run errands, hop on the Red Line, or bump into someone you know (or used to know).
The Mix Porter Square is about celebrating what this place already is.
A mix of:
▪️ Everyday essentials and local favorites
▪️ Neighbors, students, commuters, and families
▪️ Practical errands and moments worth lingering for
The new name reflects the way life naturally comes together here. Familiar, a little quirky, deeply local, and always evolving. Same place. Same community. Just a new name that helps tell its story.
You may have already noticed some changes taking shape, like new public art and places to sit and hang out. And there’s more to come, including the return of the community bulletin board, free events, and new ways to connect with neighbors throughout the year.
It’s still the place you come for what you need and maybe stay a little longer than planned.
Welcome to The Mix Porter Square. 💛 A neighborhood hub where everyday life comes together.
