Historic Charlestown’s riverside community on the rise

Up-and-Coming Luxury Upscale River Small Business

Only 16 minutes from downtown Boston, Little Mystic is nestled along the Mystic River to the west of the legendary Bunker Hill and Charleston Navy Yard neighborhoods. This neighborhood houses lavish waterfront apartments and condos with jaw-dropping views in renovated industrial buildings. There are also several business offices and warehouses here as well.

In this small area, there are few amenities apart from two grocery stores, a tennis center, a boat ramp, and a small park with a great view of Tobin Memorial Bridge. However, the Mystic River Watershed Association and Charlestown locals are working toward making Little Mystic more accessible. There are plans in motion to create a waterfront access and routes for biking and walking. If you’re looking for upscale apartment in an up-and-coming area, check out scenic Little Mystic.
