Boston homes are well known for beautiful architecture and the quaint neighborhoods they are in but sometimes I feel it lacks a little “over-the-topness” (I know that isn’t a real word) that other cities like NYC and LA have. While I really appreciate the history and everything that goes along with it, I like […]

The Ritz Carlton, The InterContinental, The Mandarin Oriental, Atelier 505, The Four Seasons, Le Jardin. These buildings all come to mind when you think of luxury condos in Boston. But what are really the top 3 buildings for Boston’s luxury buyer?
Here are my top 3:
Ritz Carlton Towers - With views to die for and still […]
Mr. Ahearn from Otis & Ahearn does us all a huge favor and puts out quarterly reports on the downtown Boston condominium market. Just a few days ago he released his Year End report for 2006. Even though not all sales have been reported, 2006 looks like it will report around $2.2+ billion in condo […]
In a speech this morning, Mayor Menino annouced his plans to again try to sell City Hall and City Hall Plaza to private developers. The sale of this under-developed land would provide more than enough proceeds to fund the development of a iconic new City Hall on Drydock Four in the new and up-and-coming “Seaport […]

I know its been a while since my last post on here but I do have an excuse…I’ve been really busy! It seems that people are shopping for more than Playstation 3 and iPods this holiday season, and with good reason.
The period of time between Thanksgiving and New Year’s Day is the best time to […]
This past April, right in an alley near my office, a single open-air parking space sold for $250,000 setting a new city record. Even though the housing boom is over, the average price for a downtown space rose 16 percent, to $92,810 which is more than double the 2001 average according to a recent Boston […]
One of Boston’s landmarks will be changing it’s name come January. The Tata Group’s Taj Hotels acquired the 79 year old Ritz Carlton for $170 million. This is the oldest Ritz-Carlton hotel in the world.
Other than the name, not much else will change. The hotel recently went under a $50 million renovation in 2003.
My Thoughts: It’s […]
I was just watching some show on ABC (okay, it was Desperate Housewives but, in my defense, it was my girlfriend’s choice, I wanted to watch Flip this House) and a little new flash popped up in the corner of the screen with the headline “Downtown Crossing to Change Name”
Now, I knew they had some […]
