Cambridge is one of the more expensive municipalities in the Boston region for buying a home. Yet there are relative deals to be had in the People’s Republic.
A chunk of concrete fell on a car on August 8, spurring partial and full closures of the facility—which, with approximately 2,600 spaces, is the largest of its kind in the MBTA system.
There’s plenty of light throughout the capacious space, which has three bathrooms and the potential for three bedrooms. The open floorplan is deliberate for the house that went up in 1980.
The cities want the app-accessed e-vehicles out until the company behind them obtains the proper permits—but such permissions might not be available until the fall.
The recently listed numbers in this weekend’s house tour range from a rare Round Building selection to ones in quintessential brick buildings with classic details.
The nation will mark that milestone, which guaranteed the vote for women, in August 2020. The city hopes to have a statue or something similar up by then.
Median one-bedroom apartment rents in Medford, Quincy, Waltham, Lowell, Framingham, Fall River, and Worcester are up by double-digit percentages for July compared with the same month in 2017, according to a new analysis.
The Cambridge property has been shuttered since 2012. The newest details come courtesy of an owner whom local officials have pressured to do something with the gaping space.
The 11-story 250 North Street is part of plans for 2.1 million square feet of technology and science space, as well as thousands of new apartments and condos, where Somerville, Cambridge, and Boston converge.
The pile includes two and a half bathrooms, a private yard, and the potential for three bedrooms. There are three floors total, and the price includes two off-street parking spots.
Surprise: Rents are up from last year around a lot of spots, according to a new analysis. Sometimes it really pays to stay on the train that much longer.
The plan, which involves installing a new plaza to bend traffic on Hampshire Street as it reaches Cambridge Street, still needs state legislative approval. But a June 4 vote caps a long and sometimes contentious debate locally.
The battle over the EMF Building at 120 Brookline Street has taken a turn as musicians displaced from the property and their supporters vow a protest of a June 16 event in nearby Harvard Square.
Then there is the size of the house itself, which includes a separate apartment. The listing suggests renting that out— "or you could give your favorite artist or poet a place to live." Well?
The project, called Park 77, will replace the site of a former door and window factory and warehouse. It’s right across from Danehy Park and right next to a 54-unit apartment development called Park 87 that the same pair of developers put up.
The house includes the potential for up to seven bedrooms; and there are six full bathrooms as well as six fireplaces. There are also vestiges of the early-1870s construction, including the moldings and windows in the living room and parlor.
The site of the event-slash-rally was no accident: It took place near where a 60-year-old bicyclist traveling from Lexington to Harvard Square was fatally struck in 2016.
The city is not the first municipality in the Boston region that one looks within for a deal on a house. It’s notoriously expensive—and getting expensive-er. Yet here comes 18 Jay Street.
The more than 4 acres of greenspace come as Kendall slaps on commercial and residential space—including what could very well be Cambridge’s tallest building.
Cambridge in 2009 committed itself to reducing residential trash disposal 30 percent by 2020 and 80 percent by 2050. The composting expansion helps the city toward those benchmarks.
The house with three bedrooms and one full bathroom carries in its interior the vestiges of late midcentury modern design, so to speak. But parts of it have been updated, including the roof, most windows, and the siding.
The region’s neighborhoods can be divided into three tiers: The $1,000-a-square-foot-and-up neighborhoods, the middle tier of $500 to $999 a foot, and the under-$500-a-foot ones.
Those cities firmly led the regional apartment market as it entered March, according to a new analysis. Boston proper and Somerville were also among the most costly for tenants.
The total tag is about $1,000 a square foot—$4,485,000. That gets a buyer six bedrooms and four and a half bathrooms as well as a finished basement with its own side entrance.
That was the message coming out of a Cambridge City Council meeting earlier this week, where the pros and cons of the 1.25 miles of lane were debated at length.
