Neighborhood

A diverse, energetic, close-knit area that also has quiet green spaces, the Jeffries Point-Airport neighborhood of East Boston sits just 10 minutes from downtown Boston. Commuters can take the Maverick station of the MBTA blue line to reach other parts of the city, while a bus shuttle from the airport MBTA station connects Jeffries Point-Airport to Logan International Airport. The area features a mix of modern-style condos and older multi-family homes for rent.

One of the defining landmarks of Jeffries Point-Airport, Piers Park provides residents an escape from city life right in their own neighborhood, with magnificent views of the Boston skyline. Stroll along the harbor, take in a free concert, or just sit back underneath the gazebo and watch the world go by. Afterwards, head over to cozy Ko Catering and Pies to enjoy a savory Australian meat pie on the patio.
