"An area high on the arts"

The old Industrial Park is more commonly known as Brickbottom for all the early brick making facilities that used to be there. Early on, it was mixed with the immigrants who lived and worked there. Most of their houses are gone today and the remaining bleak looking factory buildings are
deceiving. Inside those places is some of the most exciting art work being created in Boston today. It's a long way from brick factories and the tea companies who once thrived here.

This is such a mecca for artists. A place where they can live and work and the sense of community is fantastic. The whole neighborhood is ever expanding and the energy is unbelivable!
