An employee of the Registry recently observed that the upcoming Democratic National Convention in Boston during the last week in July will present a great opportunity for the Middlesex North Registry of Deeds to attract new users to our Middlesex South Satellite Office. The convention is expected to create a traffic nightmare, especially for those heading towards the greater Boston area (especially Cambridge). If registry users normally bound for Cambridge know that they can avoid convention-related traffic hassles by coming to Lowell, they undoubtedly will. I expect we will heavily promote the availability of the satellite office and have extra staff available to handle the increase in business. Perhaps we’ll get some promotional literature about Lowell from the Chamber of Commerce. If people come to Lowell to record documents, maybe they’ll stick around for a while. If anyone has any ideas or suggestions, please send me an email.
