Newtonville is one of the thirteen villages within the city of Newton in Middlesex County, Massachusetts, United States.
The Star Market on Austin Street (briefly renamed "Shaw's") was one of the first projects in the country to acquire air rights for construction; the supermarket is built over the Massachusetts Turnpike. [1]
Newtonville is bordered by four other villages. Nonantum to the north, Newton Corner to the east, Newton Centre to the south, and West Newton to the west. Although Newton City Hall is located in Newton Centre, its property is contiguous with the border of Newtonville.
Sites listed on the National Register of Historic Places include:
Located in Newtonville is Newton North High School, one of the city's two high schools, and Cabot Elementary School, one of the largest elementary schools in the city. The southern part of the village is home to Bullough's Pond and the Johnny Kelley Statue, marking the beginning of Heartbreak Hill for runners in the Boston Marathon.
Newtonville is bisected by the Massachusetts Turnpike, connecting it to neighboring villages in Newton and downtown Boston.
The village is served by the MBTA Commuter Rail's Framingham/Worcester Line at Newtonville station, and by MBTA bus.
