Lost radios in Cambridge city center
I was heading to a late-night gig with a friend around 11:45 PM and think I left my radios on the number 2 bus from Castle Street, somewhere near King's Parade outside Trinity College. The two radios are compact, with black casings and a red power button; one has a small dent on the corner. I rely on them for rehearsals and gigs around Cambridge, so losing them has really set me back. I would be incredibly grateful to have them returned.
Found driver's license near Cambridge Central Library
On Tuesday around 6:40 pm, I found a driver's license on the pavement outside Cambridge Central Library, near King's Parade. The card looked freshly dropped and the photo glass caught the light as I picked it up. I felt a mix of relief and obligation, imagining the owner frantically retracing steps. I kept it safe and posted here in hopes the rightful owner will see it and claim it soon.

Found Sheet Music in Cambridge
I found someone else’s sheet music this afternoon in Cambridge, around 3:15 p.m., on King's Parade near King's College. It looked recently used, with pencil annotations and a small bookmark sticking out of Bar 23. There wasn’t a name on the cover, so I carried it to the Cambridge Central Library and left it with the reception desk, hoping the owner would recognize it. I can imagine someone working through scales late in a practice room, then realizing the pages were missing—how relieved they’d feel to see it again. If the owner passes by, I hope this helps reunite them with their music.
LOST DVDs near Market Square, Cambridge
I’m Oliver Bennett. I lost a small bundle of DVDs around 6:45 PM on Saturday near Market Square in Cambridge, by King’s Parade and the Cambridge Market. They’re in a black carry case with a white label; among them are a couple of titles we planned to watch after a lecture. I must admit I’m frustrated—it’s not just the films, it’s a reminder of a planned movie night with friends. If these are found, please log them via the site so I can reclaim them.
LOST: holiday decorations in Cambridge, near Market Square.
Last Friday around 6:15 pm, I was outside Cambridge Market Square helping set up for a small charity display. I carried a tote with holiday decorations—handmade paper stars, a string of warm-white lights, and a couple of glass baubles. I popped into a cafe on King's Parade for a quick hot chocolate, and when I came back the tote was gone. The Cambridge evening felt chilly and I felt a bit lonely as I retraced my steps. If anyone saw something by Market Square or near the Grand Arcade, please get in touch—these decorations mean a lot to us.
Red Nike running shoes, size 9, lost in Cambridge
I was out for a run yesterday around 3pm, starting near the Harvard Square T stop and heading down Mass Ave toward the Cambridge Common. I must have kicked them off during a quick stretch outside the Starbucks on Brattle Street near the Cambridge Common and somehow left them there. They're red Nike running shoes, size 9 US, with a white swoosh and a mesh upper. The left shoe has a tiny tear at the toe and a neon blue lace, while the right has a faint scuff on the heel. They were a gift from my sister and mean a lot to me - if you found them, email [email protected]; I would be incredibly grateful.
Black Korg Minilogue XD with red cat sticker
I lost my black Korg Minilogue XD analog poly synth outside the Harvard Coop in Harvard Square, Cambridge, yesterday around 3pm. It's a compact 37-key keyboard with a matte black casing and a small dent on the bottom edge. There’s a bright red cat-shaped sticker on the back panel and a blue USB-C cable still wrapped around the unit. This instrument is in the Electronic Instruments category, and it holds sentimental value for me because it was a birthday gift from my sister and I’ve been using it for gigs lately. If anyone found it, please reach out—I’d be incredibly grateful to get it back.
Found framed abstract watercolor print near Harvard Square
I found a framed abstract watercolor print this afternoon around 3:15pm outside the Starbucks in Harvard Square, Cambridge. It’s an 11x14 inch print in a slim black metal frame, with a soft blue-green palette and a few gold highlights. There’s a tiny scuff along the bottom edge and a small handwritten sticker on the back that reads 'M. Carter, 14'. The piece has clearly been cared for—not a cheap mass print, and it feels sentimental to someone who loves color and coastal scenes. It seemed to have been left temporarily, like someone paused there during a gallery hop or a stroll through Cambridge. If you’re the owner, I’d really like to reunite you with it; I’m keeping it safe and can coordinate drop-off or a meet-up around Central Square.
Black Yamaha trumpet with dent near bell
I lost my black Yamaha trumpet yesterday around 3pm outside the Cambridge Public Library on Broadway, near the Main Street crosswalk. It's a Yamaha YTR-2330 with a few worn lacquer spots showing brass, a small dent near the bell, and a black hard case with a red interior. There's a white sticker on the case that says 'Cam Jazz Club' and the mouthpiece receiver is engraved with my initials 'P.P.'; it was a gift from my grandfather and means a lot to me. If you think you might have seen it, email me at [email protected]; I really need it back, and I’m offering a small reward.
Charcoal North Face hoodie with orange zipper pull
Hey Cambridge, I lost my charcoal gray North Face hoodie yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Brattle Street in Harvard Square. It's a men's medium, fleece-lined hoodie with an orange zipper pull and a bright lime-green interior hood. The fabric is a bit pilled from daily wear, and there's a small coffee stain on the right chest pocket and a tiny pull near the left cuff. It means a lot to me—it was a gift from my sister and has sentimental value. If anyone found it, please reach out; I really need it back to stay warm during the chilly Cambridge mornings.
Blue plush dragon Ember with teal wings
I lost my blue plush dragon, Ember, yesterday around 3pm near the Cambridge Public Library on Broadway. It’s about 12 inches tall, with a soft sky-blue fleece body, a teal belly, and tiny teal wings. There’s a small tear on the left ear, and the paw is embroidered with the name 'Ember' in bright yellow thread. It was a gift from Grandma and means a lot to my kid—it's sentimental and hard to replace. If anyone spotted Ember around the library steps or in the nearby bus stop area on Broadway, I’d really appreciate getting him back. Thanks for keeping an eye out; I’m hopeful Ember finds his way home soon.
Dark walnut coffee table with brass hairpin legs
I lost my dark walnut coffee table with brass hairpin legs yesterday around 3pm near the Cambridge Public Library on Broadway. It's a mid-century style piece, about 48 inches long, 18 inches wide, and 16 inches tall. The surface shows a few light scratches and there's a small wobble in the left front leg. There's a tiny white sticker on the underside that reads '12B' in black marker, along with a faint vase ring mark on the top. This table was a wedding gift from my grandmother, and it means a lot to me—I really need it back.
Found: Pink-cover paperback mystery near Cambridge Central Library
I found a paperback mystery this afternoon around 2:15pm outside the Cambridge Central Library on Lion Yard, near Market Street. It's a trade paperback with a pink cover, a creased spine, and a coffee stain by the bottom corner. The title is 'The Night Circus' by Erin Morgenstern, and there's a blue ink note inside the front cover with the initials 'A.P.' and a faded bookmark tucked between pages. It seems like someone who cared about this book might be missing it, and I’d love to help reunite it. If this is yours, swing by the Cambridge Central Library desk and mention the pink cover with the blue initials.
Brown leather Coach wallet with cards and a photo
I lost my brown Coach wallet yesterday around 3pm near the Starbucks on Massachusetts Avenue in Harvard Square, Cambridge. It's a medium-bifold made of dark brown leather, with a gold Coach emblem on the front and a tiny coffee stain on the back. Inside are my driver's license, two bank cards, and a small photo of my grandma tucked in the card slot. The inner lining features a bright blue stitch along the seam—easy to spot if you know what to look for. This wallet really matters to me; it was a gift, and I’d be grateful to get it back.
