Needham

Charles River

The Town of Needham is located on rocky uplands within a loop of the Charles River, almost isolated from the surrounding countryside. Early settlers relied primarily on agricultural and grazing, with some lumbering and tanneries as supplements to the local economy. By the 18th century sawmills and grist mills were opened by a number of residents along the Charles River. By mid 19th century the expansion of the railroad saw the growth of industrial employment in Needham. Modern Needham remains a pleasant suburban community with easy access to Boston for commuters and a significant number of local job slots. For more information click Town of Needham
