Midtown / Downtown Real Estate
Downtown Crossing is one of the oldest neighborhoods in the United States with primary roots dating back to the 17th century. It was once we hit the 19th century that the area had been regarded as a retail center with the opening of the flagship store of Filene’s. The once Beaux Arts structure stood at the current site of what is now home to the popular Millennium Tower. Many Bostonians would associate the Downtown Crossing neighborhood with being a bustling daytime district with shopping, business and industry during the day, and a drastic contrast with quiet and desolate streets at night. However, today the Downtown and Midtown neighborhoods are not only flooded with business, but are most certainly becoming residential areas with numerous buildings being currently built or are in the planning stages. Close proximity to Back Bay’s shopping, The Boston Common, Beacon Hill, Financial District and a handful of blocks to the water make for a prime location to live.
