Local housing stock
The median home in Cambridge dates to 1950, and 75.3 percent of the stock was already standing when the 1990s began. Brick load-bearing rows, pre-war apartments, and frame on full basements, a dense academic and industrial stock, with Broad Canal and mill fill along the river where basements sit at the Charles's grade.
Climate & seasonal risk
Cambridge averages 49.29 inches of precipitation a year on the 1991–2020 normals, taken at CAMBRIDGE 0.9 NNW 0.9 miles away, with December the wettest month at 4.97 inches. December leads at 4.97 inches of a 49.29 inch year. Along the Charles that winter peak lands when evaporation is gone and the river is high, so a basement on mill fill is in groundwater the river sets; on the inland brick blocks the same peak is a party-wall and areaway problem.
Common moisture and mold problems in Cambridge
- Charles River mill-fill and Broad Canal ground where basement water tables move with the river
- Brick load-bearing rows whose party walls and party roofs carry one leak through several addresses
- Areaways on the inland blocks taking December rain with no overflow once the drains are full
- A 1950-median mix of academic masonry and frame whose cavities were never built to be isolated
