Meet the creators
We are proud North Cantabrigians, and have been for over ten years! Our enthusiasm, mixed with our passion for writing, resulted in this website. You may know us as friends, family, or perhaps just a fellow resident of North Cambridge. Our cat Dini, might be mentioned in posts. Though she may not have technically made the site with us, she’s still definitely part of the NOCA Gazette team! Here’s some photos of the adorable feline, for reference:
A brief History
We created NOCA Gazette in 2017, but put it on pause for some time. Then, in the beginning of the COVID-19 pandemic, inspiration struck! Now, we update the posts every once and a while, whenever we experience something new and exciting in this wonderful little pocket of Cambridge, Massachusetts. Check out our post about the revival here .
