Mission Hill - Boston,
Massachusetts
With the addition of mixed-income housing, the renovation of
One Brigham Circle and a strong business district along Tremont
Street and Huntington Avenue, Mission Hill is alive with renewed
energy while still retaining its original character. The community
consists of a large African American and Hispanic population, a
healthy collection of students from nearby colleges and young
families who work in the Longwood Medical Area, making it one of the
most diverse neighborhoods in Boston. New condominiums now join the
traditional brick row houses and many three-decker homes that mark
this architectural landmark district. Located just one mile from
downtown Boston, Mission Hill also houses the historic Mission
Church.
