The North End is regarded to be the “Little Italy” of the city with plentiful amounts of home-cooked Italian restaurants, authentic Gelato shops, and renowned bakeries. Located in the northeast corner of Boston, the North End is the oldest community in the city. Its rich history is exemplified through everyday life and a resident can find comfort that change is a rarity around these parts. Generational Italians still sit on stoops speaking their native language. Joyous and festive parades are a Sunday ritual. While local children gather around a projected movie at the park eating their Regina Pizza, a meal that was infamously founded here in 1926.
The architecture in the area varies throughout the neighborhood, but generally the most common is a 20th century row house style. The North End has an eclectic mix of students, young professionals, and life-long residents, but it is mostly noted as one of the younger areas in Boston. Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall are close by which draws in tourists for shopping and entertainment. Generally you can find the North End to be slightly cheaper than nearby neighborhoods. Closest T-Stops are Haymarket and North Station.
