East Boston in recent years has morphed from one of Boston’s more affordable enclaves to an increasingly expensive one because of new development.
This weekend’s open house tour looks at some of the neighborhood’s (relatively) more affordable units for sale: Each is asking under $550,000. Expect to find a mixture of renovated condos, new construction, and fixer-uppers.
