"Don't Buy a New Car"

Margin street is really TIGHT! I have gotten my car scraped at least 4 times within the last 1/2 year after parking on that street. Maybe it may be someone that has a beef with me on that street. There is not much traffic, so it is somewhat quiet. Margin Street empties out on a series of other streets until it finally brings you to N Washington. Once on Washington, there is loads of things to do from shopping to eating with its many Italian restaurants to choose from. Or you can easily jump on the Expressway south and go to the N England Aquarium.

"Great little North End street, close to everything"

North Margin Street can be a little noisy and dirty (yes, I have seen a rat or two) but overall it's a great place to live. There are people of all ages living in the street, from families with kids on up through young yuppies and old folks. There is no regular street cleaning so trash will sometimes build up. Also trash pickup is three days a week -- a blessing and a curse, because there are almost always trash bags on the curb. Still, proximity to North End and downtown attractions can't be beat.
