The Local Map
A Rare Hold in a Tight Downtown Market
The lifestyle this penthouse offers is backed by hard numbers. Boston remains a resilient market, driven by major education, healthcare, and biotech employers. With limited new housing supply in historic downtown neighborhoods, well-located properties like this one hold their value over time, while continuing to draw strong rental demand from high-earning professionals.
