Not too long ago, Boston was divided by an ugly elevated highway, physically and psychologically separating the Waterfront and North End from the rest of the city. Since then the infamous Big Dig project has improved the landscape vastly, stitching the city back together again. This week's open house tour features a sample of homes that have easy waterfront and city access. We're talking about the Charlestown Navy Yard, the InterContinental, and the Folio, to name a few. Slightly inland, condos are going up and building high, but there's something to be said about having front-row seats to the views on the waterfront and Boston's newest parkland. What'd you think?
