A New Edge to South Boston
Boston Globe reports

Some interesting quotes in this article:
“Bostonians have become much more open to contemporary design,” said LeBlanc. “They are reading Dwell magazine and are buying furniture at IKEA and Design Within Reach, but in Boston there is a drought of contemporary spaces to put it in. I think that is why these projects are selling very well.”
South Boston is an Area in transition: With that said this article focuses on how ‘modern’ us Bostonians have become and are willing to become … got me here. Modern furniture has become a new wave / style for interior design. We are just going with the flow as usual. As for South Boston’s development, its an interesting development project and all or mostly new construction projects – and modern – floor to ceiling glass and townhouse architecture is in – and that is what they are building. The article profiles recently built and sold Trolley House & rehab project 80 A St – New construction and for sale projects East Second St, 321-323 West Second St. If you are looking for new construction, with parking and space South Boston is a great area to start looking. Just don’t get caught paying downtown prices – despite what developments teams will tell you – you are buying in an “up and coming” area and should pay accordingly. If you can get into a new unit for 475-500 sq.ft (+/-) with parking you should be in great shape.
