Boston: Seaport District Condos

Seaport District offers an unrivaled lifestyle, uniting everything from live entertainment and arts to rooftop bars and renowned restaurants.

The Seaport District unites entertainment, arts, and renowned dining— all within steps from the city’s waterfront and downtown. Seaport District neighborhood first housed industry then artists. Today, it is home to a variety of the city’s most distinguished chefs, bakeries and breweries. Next door, the Seaport District is a new, innovative neighborhood, home to growing startups and established companies, in the center of one of the nation’s oldest cities. Seaport District is a neighborhood or district of Boston, Massachusetts, and where a fort stood which guarded the city in colonial times.

Seaport District was located near what is today the intersection of Oliver and High Streets. At least until 1675, (see map) the hill jutted out into the Atlantic Ocean, hence the designation of being a “point”. Its height and proximity to the sea made the hill an advantageous point to put defensive cannons. Between 1866 and 1872, the City of Boston undertook a redevelopment project on Seaport District in attempt to add more land for business facilities. The project called for the Hill to be leveled, for the streets to be widened, and for all buildings to be razed.
