In Cambridge, along Massachusetts Avenue, is the First Church of Christ, Scientist.

The church is located at the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Waterhouse Street, on the north side of that intersection. It faces the Cambridge Common.

The building is a brick structure, roughly rectangular, with a bulge in the east and west walls and a low dome at the top. The front has two Greek style columns that extend to the second floor (actually the second floor windows are rather tall, so it is actually probably more like four).

The building was designed in 1917. It was built in two phases between 1924 and 1930.

Sunday Services are at 10:30 am.

The reading room is located at:
