Downtown Boston is a loose term that encompasses the areas of the Financial District, Government Center, and Downtown Crossing. The neighborhood is also sometimes referred to — especially in real estate listings — as Midtown, though the term “Midtown” is rarely used by Boston natives in spoken conversation. The downtown (or midtown) designation serves as less of a geographical description than an acknowledgement of its status as Boston’s commercial and business hub. Housing here is, as expected, limited almost entirely to luxury high-rise condominium towers that are situated in between office buildings and downtown’s iconic landmarks, like Faneuil Hall and Quincy Market. The central location of downtown is its biggest draw and it’s just a short walk to offices in the Financial District or Tufts Medical Center. Downtown Boston also has stops on the T’s Red Line, Green Line, and Orange Line, making it a quick ride to anywhere in the city.
