“The system design and sales process went very smoothly. My numerous questions were answered clearly and patiently. At no point did I feel any sort of sales pressure. Likewise, the self-installation process was a breeze, with Connie's expert coaching. Her sense of humor helped as well! I heartily recommend this team to anyone in the market for a home alarm system.”

“Service is something lacking in our world today. The Team at Alarm New England, whether it be tech support, installation technicians, sales, or at the monitoring station, are top notch. This is a REAL alarm company, rather than a cable company that bolts on alarm service as an afterthought. These guys are the real deal!”

History of Reading

The origin of Reading began in nearby Lynn. In the sixteen-thirties, a lot of settlers emigrated from England via the open ports of Salem and Lynn. In the year 1639, some of the residents of Lynn asked the government for a portion of land for "inland plantation." The ten square miles they were granted was first known as Lynn Village. It was located on the southern shores of Lake Quannapowitt. In June 1644, the settlement of Lynn Village was incorporated under the name of Reading. It was named after Reading, a town in England. In 1651, a portion of land opposite the southern region of the Ipswich River was added to Reading. In 1853, this parcel of land later became North Reading.

In the nineteenth century, Reading was known far and wide as a manufacturing community. The significant businesses were furniture making, clock manufacturing, and organ pipe factories. By the middle of the nineteenth century, Reading had quite a hold on the furniture making business. There were thirteen different business that specialized in the manufacture of chairs and cabinets. Later on, shoemaking became a major industry in Reading with huge factories spanning the borders of the town. Neckties manufacturing was prevalent in Reading for more than eighty years. During The Civil War, more than four hundred men from Reading went off to do battle. A memorial at the Laurel Hill Cemetery still exists in honor of Reading men who died as a result of the American civil war.
