Apartment Life in Charlestown

Charlestown is probably one of the most visited neighborhoods of Boston. Anyone who walks the Freedom Trail, visits the USS Constitution, or climbs to the top of Bunker Hill, is a friend of Charlestown.

By day, tourists flock to the historic sites, students attend classes at the Bunker Hill Community College and thousands of people head to work.

Charlestown is located on a peninsula (originally called "Mishawum" by the Native Americans) just northwest of Downtown Boston. It is accessible from Route 1 (the Tobin Bridge), Route 93, and local roads. Charlestown is connected to Boston's North End by the Washington Street Bridge, which is also the route of the Freedom Trail.

Charlestown was recently home to the Navy Yard. Since it was de-commissioned, the neighborhood has changed as the Navy Yard has been converted to residential and office space. Families and young professionals are joining residents who have called Charlestown home for generations. Charlestown is extremely well located - both the waterfront and downtown business district are an easy walk.
