What's To Love
You will have to take time to enjoy Semolina’s modern vibe, La Cascia’s bread, & Sandwiches at Bob’s Italian Foods.
What's Not To Love
The streets around Tufts University can be busy during the school year...and especially graduation weekend! It’s a little busier of the residential options because of its close proximity to the Mystic Valley Parkway and other main arteries.
Is it for me?
