I stopped for donuts, then scrolled up to Chelmsford Street, and then on another day, I parked at Tyler Park and walked down Westford Street, taking photos along the way.

I had a wonderful long chat with the owner who has made these popular donuts for over 43 years. Not only was he interested in what I was doing and why I was taking photos but he answered all my questions. He also gave me a free donut. Thanks, Eric! In addition, he supervised me in taking the picture below.
The Donut Shack is at 487 Westford St.
I parked on Howard Street and walked along the street to Chelmsford St.
I tried to find the guy who picks up old metal, but no luck.

At the intersection of Westford and Chelmsford Streets, near the Raymond F. Rouke Parking Garage for those taking trains to Boston or other stops.As I turned on Chelmsford Street, I was pleased the traffic wasn't bad at all. The major road construction has since removed the Lord Overpass.

The red and blue business and apartment complex had a fire a year ago. Work is currently being done, and I expect it to open soon. Across the street is a local favorite restaurant and Lounge.

I drove to Tyler Park, it's a great place to walk, and parking is on all four sides.

Two free lending libraries are available. The adult one has been there quite a while, but the children's was installed last week. Twelve years ago, I visited the home of the famous landscaper of Tyler Park, Frederick Law Olmsted's House -- A Dream of A Visit in Brookline, Massachusetts. You can see how beautiful his house is by clicking on the link.
Tyler Park is one entire block.
