The second annual Curbed Cup kicked off over the bridge last week with eight enclaves vying for the very prestigious faux trophy and bragging rights as the Cape and Islands' Best Neighborhood of the Year. We're including towns and villages in our Cape & Islands definition of a neighborhood, rounding up, if you will. That said, we'll continue to have one match-up per day, with polls staying open for 24 hours. Let the eliminations resume!

We kicked off Curbed Cup voting with four battles in which Aquinnah, Provincetown, Nantucket, and Wellfleet were victorious. The winner of today's round will face-off against Provincetown in the final. In one corner, the one and only Nantucket. In the other corner, the 2012 defending champ Wellfleet. So Curbed readers, which town should advance? Submit your click for the locale you think deserves to move on to the final round, toward 'hood of the year bragging rights and the faux trophy.
