Watson's Corner
Watson's Corner is the historical name for an intersection in Cambridge, Massachusetts, at the corner of Rindge Avenue and Massachusetts Avenue. It was part of a wider area called Watson's Plain in colonial and Revolutionary War times and well into the 19th century.〔''Survey of Architectural History in Cambridge: Northwest Cambridge'', 1977, ISBN 0-262-53032-5, Cambridge Historical Commission, Cambridge, Massachusetts, pp. 14-16, 39〕
Watson's Corner gained notability on account of a skirmish that occurred there on April 19, 1775 in connection with the Battles of Lexington and Concord. A marker at 2154 Massachusetts Avenue commemorates the skirmish. An account of this event from the Cambridge city website〔 describes the scene thusly:〔An obvious typo has been corrected.〕
:At Watson’s Corner (the present intersection of Rindge and Massachusetts avenues) Cambridge patriots lay in wait behind a pile of barrels, but were surprised by flanking redcoats. John Hicks and Moses Richardson of Cambridge and Isaac Gardner of Brookline were killed, as was William Marcy, a "simple-minded youth" who thought he was watching a parade.〔( "The American Revolution Comes to Cambridge, Part III: Retreat: Deadly Skirmishes in North Cambridge" ) Retrieved 15 October 2012 〕
