East Boston and Beyond

Experience East Boston, Chelsea, and Revere

Originally a center for shipbuilding, East Boston has always been a neighborhood of immigrants. Today, its population is made up largely of Italian-Americans and immigrants from Central and South America and Southeast Asia. That diversity is reflected in the neighborhood's myriad of ethnic restaurants. The housing throughout East Boston is a mixture of old and new, including many restored triple-deckers. East Boston offers numerous hotels close to the Blue Line for easy access to downtown Boston.

Logan Airport is located in East Boston, making the neighborhood a gateway to people from around the world. Located across Boston Harbor, East Boston residents enjoy fantastic waterfront views of the city skyline.
