Thanks! She's tried Down Under a few times. I think if it was closer to where we live, it could fill her need.
She's been eying Fitlab, do you have any gift or starter packages?

Down Under Yoga is great - they have a wide variety of different types of yoga. They have a few locations near where you mentioned (Harvard Sq. Porter). Definitely check them out!
If she wants to try Pilates, I own Fitlab Pilates in Inman Square!

It looks like a solid sport and a great location for us. Do you have any specific class time or teachers you recommend?

Be yoga in Union is great. It's a smaller studio but they have some great instructors.

I’ve got an old school (1980s vintage) Uncle Wiggly Tear that gets too little use at my age. Happy to let it go to a person who’d find some value in it

There was a story a few months ago about a city that added charging cables to electrical poles as a cost effective implementation. I could see that working out well here, but at the same time it got a lot of pushback when it was reposted in my local hipster square fb group on the grounds that supporting any sort of car is unacceptable. So I doubt it would actually happen (and I'm stuck with my combustion engine for the foreseeable future).

The street parked one is purple and on Fayerweather at Brattle, and the other is silver and often parked in the driveway of a house on Raymond at Robinson.

Where can I find them?

There are more and more public EV chargers in Cambridge, and of the two that I pass almost daily, I would guess that one is often in use, and one is almost never in use. They are in different parking lots, but arguably are almost within sight of each other. Not sure why one seems to be more popular.
I think it’s depending on neighborhood, but at least in my neighborhood, there are plenty of EVs that are owned by folks who have their own driveways. That does not stop them from street parking though.

FYI just in case you want to check them out more closely, there are at least two Lucid Air in Cambridge. And, one is street parked.

Check their map for a tower location. If one is in a good spot in relation to you, you can try it out with no contracts.

You're asking a sub of car haters which car to get.
When I looked into EVs, I wasn't able to get on board and ended up getting another non-EV. For EV to work I feel you either need deeded parking or a convenient supercharger. I imagine public slow chargers would be annoying to consistently deal with.

Sounds like you got some help which is great to see, but if you ever need a bike check out the Somerville Bike Kitchen or Bikes Not Bombs and they’ll hook you up as long as you’re willing to do your own work (with free parts and tools). Parking may be an issue so you can also contact BlueBikes and they can help you with a free/cheap membership (it may require a credit card).

From a city investment PoV, investing in other modes pays off vastly better. Most investment in roads and parking gets used largely by non residents.
If anything, the state should be the one funding EV infrastructure. As a Cambridge resident I don’t want the city budget spent supporting EVs driving in from Lexington, but we’re all MA residents so it makes sense in the state budget.

I’ve got a plug in hybrid and a tiny driveway, so I installed a charger and im on electric most of the time, minus road-trips. But I don’t drive much because it’s a city, so walking + T gets me to a lot of the places I want to go
In my old apartment I had street parking and I almost never was on electric because there wasn’t much reliable charging. If you do street parking, getting a Tesla for the supercharger network or an ICE is probably your best bet.

Verizon wireless. They have a 5G Home Internet plan similar to t-mobile.

Verizon Fios or straight Verizon? I noticed how there technically is competition where I live because Verizon offers internet services, but it's 7/7 for $40 a month...

Reply to My car got towed for street cleaning, however, there was no scheduled cleaning on either sides of the street. I got ticketed/towed, and this cost me $200. by Ioseb_Hates_Money
Based on your info, it looks like you are in District C, which is first Friday and second Monday. Those dates were 12/2 (first Friday) and 12/12 (second Monday).
Why you got towed sounds like a mystery, as it clearly was not a street sweeping day in your area. Were there maybe no parking signs posted for a different reason? Did anyone else on that side of the street get towed?
