Chinatown residential (TT1, Thursday 9:30am - noon)

"Forget it, Jake. It's Chinatown." I've always wanted to say that to someone. Sadly, I don't know anyone named Jake (except a dog, and I don't think that counts.) This tour takes you to the Archstone Boston Common, voted #1 high-rise residential complex by National Association of Home Builders in 2008. Both economically and architecturally, the development of the vibrant 24/7 center for living, working, and playing provides a catalyst for the revitalization of Boston's Chinatown and strengthens the integrity and vitality of the community. Couldn't have said that better myself.
