About Lawrence
Estates
Lawrence Estates, located between South Medford and West Medford, is a residential and commuter-friendly Medford neighborhood with leafy side streets and a classic New England streetscape. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Medford Square crossroads near Riverside Avenue and Main Street, where independent cafes, small restaurants, and civic buildings set a steady, walk-and-errand rhythm. Housing leans toward early-20th-century single-family homes and multifamily houses with porches, mature trees, and compact yards. The Mystic River corridor and the Mystic Lakes system shape the outdoor routine with paths, water views, and seasonal color. Tufts University adds lectures, performances, and a collegiate energy at the edge of daily life. Community pillars include Chevalier Theatre, Colleen’s Ice Cream & Sandwich Shop, and the Royall House and Slave Quarters.
