Now in all Fairness, this place should have two seperate reviews. 1 for the stores in the area and…read morethe convienience of it, and 1 for the HORRIBLE traffic that passes through it each day. We'll start with the good. Good: There is nearly every different type of store you could want in the area. Theres a 24 hour CVS (SOO AWESOME), there is a staples copy center, there is a supercuts, there is a PC repair place, there is a bank, there are more random restaurants then I can count with every different type of food you can imagine, theres even a Comicbook store a little ways down the road. But the best part of watertown square is the fact that you can catch the bus to get there and back and therefore can avoid the bad part of this review entirely. Speaking of the bad part. here it is. Bad: The Traffic. Anyone who's ever gone through this place at any time of the day knows it can be a pain. Anyone who's gone through it at rush hour knows what it feels like to want to murder someone. Namely that jackass who just cut you off to try and get into the turning lane. It has been aptly nicknamed "the center of hell" by one of my friends. I would like to paraphrase a line from Chonicles of Riddick, which in it self was paraphrased from General Sherman during the Civil war. "If I owned Watertown square and Hell, I'd Rent out Watertown Square and Live in Hell."

Thank you Weymouth for having the South Shore's worst intersection (Columbian Square) and for offering us Butts and Bets II and Jonathan the Master of Food. Thank you for having the best rubbish service ever (they take anything and everything). I also enjoy knowing that I can put anything outside of my house and know that it will be taken within minutes. Thank you to the Weymouth youths who smashed my pumpkins even though I was standing in the driveway. At least I don't have to throw them out myself. You would have had five stars if it wasn't for your overzealous school maintenance workers who decimate our decades-old grapevine twice in one year, just so the kids would be safe walking to school and free from ticks (because ticks apparently live grapes).

It has very strange hours; Monday 1PM-9PM, Tuesday 1PM-9PM, Wednesday 5PM-9PM and Thursday 9AM-5PM. It's closed Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The library section is EXTREMELY small, I was honestly shocked at how small and what little books they had. The building is very large yet the book section is a short hallway of sorts with 5-6 rows of bookcases on each side as you walk to the end of the room. The bookcases are about 5 feet in length with about 5 shelf's of books. In comparison to the other libraries it is tiny. There also isn't any computer access, inclusive of a computer catalog to see what books are available there and at the other town libraries. I was pretty disappointed and will be going to check out the other town libraries. It is a beautiful building though and will post some photos later when I have more time.

This place is hard to find, its down a dark tunnel where there's a convenience store, and then it looks like what old libraries used to be jsut tables and records. There's a lot of people working there but I don't know what they do. I had to find a little nook to meet w/ my attorney and the sellers attorney and sign papers but they were all occupied, and none of the rooms had names, name plates, or signs to indicate what party was in what room. So it was rather annoying to have to bother every room. it felt like i was playing lets make a deal, kept picking a door and seeing a goat eating hay. No good. but it's public works and i got my house and everything on file. the facilities definitely need to be modernized but its prolly such a low priority it'll never get the funding to make it happen... unless there's a cleansing blaze and a nice insurance policy out there.... but that wouldn't be wise. cuz fire is bad, arson is worse. so if you find yourself there to sign papers don't be afraid to bug people, and stick your head in every room. its a good time.... or just pick whats in the box...

If you are buying or selling a property or maybe you are just getting your mortgage refinanced, you will be coming to the registry of deeds to sign a few documents with your attorney or mortgage company. This location is located in the Newish Edward Brooke Courthouse. It is the super tall courthouse that is shaped like a triangle, close to the Government Center Garage. There are other court services located in the building so when you get through security (think a lesser version of the airport), ya know take off your belt and empty your pockets and leave your hunting knife collection at home. Walk straight ahead pass the snack food stand and you will be entering the Registry of Deeds. This is a longish hallway so keep walking until you come to room with tables. Your attorney or mortgage rep will probably be waiting there for you. If not roam around and get bored quickly because there is nothing but old books with records going all the way back to the very first deed conveyance in the city of boston! woo hoo!
