There's no doubt that Boston's residential-building boom is hitting an all-time high and one of the key areas to watch is downtown. At the same time, there are plenty of hidden treasures around downtown that are overshadowed by these mammoth projects (take this project and this project, for examples). It's easy to overlook the existing options that give downtown its unique character, ones such as a "true loft" in the Leather District, traditional brownstones in Beacon Hill, a penthouse in Chinatown—all of which are on view this weekend.
