What a triumphant day for all Bostonians! I know that I am not the only one that never thought that this day would come.

As many brokers and tenants seeking units have noticed, rents are on the rise and available units are on the low. It is the laws of basic business: low supply+high demand=high prices. Landlords have been recognizing larger potential earnings from their units and 5-10+% increases haven't been unheard of. After seeing much of this first hand [...]

I recently attended a panel discussion hosted by Link Boston in an absolutely stunning unit on the 26th floor of the new building in downtown Boston, 45 Province. Here is a view from one of the floor to ceiling windows in the brand new 3+ bed, 3 bath unit:

Just recently Boston's Museum of Science received a million dollar grant from Google. Today, Boston's Huntington Theatre received a gift of $10 million from The Calderwood Charitable Foundation, which has supported the theater for years. This gift instantly doubled Huntington Theatre's [...]
