Charlestown: A Neighborhood Reborn

Few neighborhoods can boast the renaissance Charlestown has enjoyed over the last decade-and-a-half, and its family-friendly amenities, historical sites, and close proximity to downtown continue to draw young professionals. From the Charlestown Navy Yard, home to the nation’s oldest commissioned vessel, the USS Constitution, to the legendary Warren Tavern, opened in 1780 and frequented by Paul Revere and George Washington, Charlestown is home to some of the nation’s most significant historical moments and artifacts. Today, its renovated rowhouses and contemporary homes are modern living spaces sprung up on the historical landscape.
