I grew up in East Boston and I went to St Rose in Chelsea until 4th Grade. I moved away and I lived in East Boston for a year, but I lived on the South Shore for most of my years since. I moved back to Chelsea in 08′ and I live @ The Spencer Lofts. There are now 4 loft communities and 3 more are in the works. Spencer Lofts, Keen Studios, Industrie Lofts, Pearl Street lofts, Forbes lofts and Atlas Lofts. Forbes and Atlas are under construction now. Atlas is ready to come on-line next week! What I can tell you is that Chelsea is only 1.8 Square miles in diameter, which is the size of one of the 10 neighborhoods of Dorchester. It is 4 miles to Boston and yes it has the flavor of Latin America here, however professionals and artist are flocking here for the low prices, flourishing arts community and the diversity that Chelsea offers. Chelsea has Admiral’s Hill, The Broadway neighborhood, Soldier’s hill, Prattville and the new revitalized Box District. A person can by a huge loft with all of the creature comfort from $180,000 -$350,000 and they can lease a loft from $1,100 -$1,800. In Boston the same lofts go for $500,0000 -$2,000,000 and from $2,200 -$5,000. That is less than 4 miles away. Chelsea has shopping, hotels, chain restaurants, local restaurants and much more. If you think you know Chelsea and you have not see it with your own eyes then contact me and I will be glad to give you a tour of Chelsea. That is if you really want to know the truth and not a bunch of speculation.
