What about "The Grove" and "Spaghettiville".

And I thought that the City of Lowell was colloquial. The neighborhoods
in Lowell are how you would describe where you are from, or where you
are lost. Or where you lost it, etc. (The Highlands. Christian Hill
(which is a section of) Centralville (pronounced Centerville or
Sennaville). Old-timers may also call Centralville "Jersey"
(manhattan/Hudson River/NJ reference), Pawtucketville, Belvediere (to
old-timers. The newbies, there is Upper Belvediere and Lower
Belvediere. Old-timers from lower Belvediere take exception to the upper
crust trying to be uppity!) Then there's South Lowell, Downtown, The
Acre, Ayers City, The Flats, and a few I may have missed.
