What's To Love
Home to Station Landing’s restaurants, retail shops, & hotels, it offers many conveniences. Long Cross Bar has great food & service with a modern vibe! You’ll have easy access to the Mystic River Reservation walking trails and river views. It’s easy to find a nice quiet spot despite being so close to Route 16.
What's Not To Love
You are typically limited to a high-rise condo or apartment. There is a pocket of some more residential options just a walk away, but walking to Station Landing is not ideal with the busy intersection.
Is it for me?
Who is this neighborhood for
Great for professionals looking for low maintenance and solid accessibility to Boston via the MBTA Orange Line or route 28.
