Neighborhood

Foss Park is a small neighborhood perfect for city folk who want access to some green space but still want the perks of living in an urban area. The area mostly has apartments for rent inside of classic New England triple-deckers or multi-family units. The namesake park is a very popular spot for residents to hang out and have a good time. Foss Park has baseball diamonds, tennis courts, and an outdoor swimming pool. For even more outdoor fun, locals take advantage of Mystic River, which borders part of town. Go to Paddleboston: Blessing of the Bay and rent canoes, kayaks, and paddleboards to ride on the beautiful river.

Foss Park is right next to Assembly Square, a popular shopping, dining, and entertainment destination. Find your favorite department stores, name brand shops, and luxury outlets beside delicious eateries, a painting bar, a movie theater, and a Legoland Discovery Center.
