About East Boston

East Boston — "Eastie" — is Boston's waterfront gem, offering harbor views, a thriving international dining scene, and some of the city's best value rents. Connected to downtown via the Blue Line (one of the fastest T rides in the system), Eastie has transformed from a quiet immigrant neighborhood into one of Boston's hottest areas. Piers Park and LoPresti Park offer stunning views of the Boston skyline, while Maverick Square buzzes with restaurants, cafes, and shops. Yes, Logan Airport is here, but most of the neighborhood is surprisingly quiet, and the waterfront access more than compensates.
