Can't speak for the Common or the Garden, but I've got quite a few leaves down, if anyone wants a bucolic New England experience and help me rake them up!

FWIW, in Cambridge, I think we hit peak last weekend.

Probably goes without saying, but Sandy pretty much put an end to the foilage season in Southern New England. It was past peak, but there still were decent patches of color. Now, there is very little left.

Agreed - not many leaves at all left on the trees here. So from the date I started this thread, the season here in Maine went about a month or more. Not too shabby!
