Why Live in Boston's Midtown or Ladder Districts?

What was once a semi-wasteland for weekday Downtown Crossing shoppers has burgeoned into Boston’s hottest new area.  With the transformation almost complete, the Ladder District enjoys all-hour popularity and luxury concierge, high-rise living right on the corner of the Boston Commons. Fueled by the relocation of the Ritz Carlton Hotel & Residences to this area, Boston’s first Sports Club LA opened shortly thereafter as well as the 20-screen Loew’s Boston Common movie theater. Multiple restaurants and new stores soon followed, and the area became a destination for residents throughout the City.
