davis_square...and beware of Lake Cedar Street.
That's right near the intersection of Cedar St and Summer. (The people who got there before me said they called the city and the owners of the parked cars also showed up and moved them.)
Edited to add: Also, my roommate reports that Cherry St is a river and that Highland is also pretty bad (but not as bad as Cedar).
There are a few more pictures here but most of them are pretty bad quality.
Edited further to add: That picture was taken at about 5:45 (maybe a bit later). As of 7pm, the water appears to be pretty much gone and the road surface is visible again.

Other factors, like lack of maintenance and improperly sized drains can also matter.
