Well, since the Archives gives the address of the 590 transmitter as 
4068 Mystic Valley Parkway, and the address of the Cambridge District 
Court is 4040 Mystic Valley Parkway, I'd say the towers I'm seeing 
are WEZE 590.  The description seems to fit.  Here's a picture of the 
court house, with one tower visible.
