Neighborhood

Situated seven miles southwest of downtown Boston, Forest Hills-Woodbourne in Jamaica Plain is a mostly residential neighborhood of multi-family homes for rent. Large green spaces cover much of the neighborhood, with the Woodbourne historical district consisting of houses dating back to the 19th century. Residents walk to the Forest Hills subway station on the Orange Line to head into downtown. This station also acts as a hub for many bus lines to take locals to other parts of the city and is home to a small business area.

The Arnold Arboretum covers a large portion of this neighborhood, and many locals wander the landscape paths, go bird watching, or relax under the maple trees. For a hearty breakfast, walk over to the Forest Hills Diner for eggs and home fries. Brassica Kitchen and Cafe serves up a tasting menu of pork belly and seaweed tagliatelle along with creative cocktails. After dinner, settle in a Eugene O'Neill's to watch the game.
