EXPLORE SONO: THE RIVER

Long before South Norwood became a center of industry, publishing, and innovation, there was the river. The Neponset River shaped the landscape, powered the mills, attracted settlers, and fueled the industries that transformed a rural crossroads into a thriving community. Today, it remains the thread that connects nature, history, and neighborhood life—a reminder that every chapter of SONO's story begins with the water that made it possible.
