ABOUT BOSTON & BOSTON APARTMENT RENTALS

Boston is easily one of the most famous and historically significant cities in the United States.  It’s also a modern, flourishing metropolis with a small town vibe.

BOSTON ATTRACTIONS 

Boston played a central role in the founding of the American nation.  During the American Revolution in the late 1700s, several major events occurred in Boston, including the Boston Tea Party and the Battle of Bunker Hill.  America’s first public school, Boston Latin School, was born there.  America’s first public college, Harvard College, opened in neighboring Cambridge.  The Boston Common, a big, green, welcoming space in the heart of the city, has been a center of Boston city life since 1634. 

In addition to its historical importance, Boston is also a center of art and commerce.  Boston boasts innumerable museums, art galleries, theaters, pubs, and universities. Quincy Market (or Faneuil Hall Market) is a unique array of shops, restaurants, and outdoor entertainment that attracts more than 18 million visitors a year.

Boston’s residents also have many parks and outdoor recreation facilities available to them.  You can walk or bike along the Emerald Necklace, a 1,100-acre chain of nine parks linked by parkways and waterways.  For even more of a retreat to nature, take a ferry to Boston Harbor Islands and enjoy fishing, boating, swimming, and hiking. 

BOSTON DINING

Boston’s dining is as rich and varied as its history!  Try Tresca, a Tuscan-styled villa, for high end Italian food or T. Anthony’s Pizzeria for delicious, casual Italian food.  House of Siam and Brown Sugar Café both serve excellent Thai food in warm and inviting atmospheres.  And be sure to check out Boston’s most famous sports bar, Bull and Finch Club, which inspired the famous television series, “Cheers.”  Linger over a “Norm Burger” and chat with the people in the place “where everybody knows your name.” 

BOSTON NIGHTLIFE

Boston has one of the most incredible nightlife scenes in the nation. Check out comedy at Nick’s Comedy Stop or check out the singles scene at hip Whiskey Park.  Wally’s Café features a bar and live jazz and blues.  The Paradise Rock Club has hosted future mega-hits like the Police, U2 and Van Halen in a relatively intimate setting.  Sculler’s Jazz Club offers spectacular views of the Boston's skyline and the Charles River and world-class entertainment in Latin and contemporary jazz, blues, soul, R&B, cabaret and world music.  Harry Connick Jr., Jane Monheit, David Sanborn, Arturo Sandoval, Wynton Marsalis and Lou Rawls are just a few of the names to grace its stage!
