There are many wonderful aspects of living at Porter 156. Most notable is the way that the developers were able to transform a 1920's abandoned warehouse into some of the hippest and most appealing loft spaces in the city, creating modern homes while preserving some of the fabulous details of the original factory. Within the home there are soaring 14 foot concrete ceilings with a 10 foot high wall of windows, allowing optimal light. They also created an open floor plan so that each individual owner could use the space as they wanted without being confined by walls and rooms.

There is also a mezzanine area that this owner has already built out with fabulous stairs, creating a raised sleeping loft and additional space, so all you have to do is move in. Using this space as your bedroom area, leaves the rest of the loft open for tremendous living space. The kitchens and bathrooms are sleek and compliment the contemporary feel of the loft. All the essential amenities are included, providing central air conditioning, a washer/dryer in the unit, efficient heating system, a fully applianced stainless steel kitchen, parking, and on-site management.

While all of these features come standard at Porter 156, this loft has some extras that make it stand out from the rest. It has a private deck overlooking a new 40 acre park which gives you rare outdoor space, and the price is one of the most affordable at the project, allowing a buyer to get into the building as this neighborhood explodes with development over the next few years. Prices keep going up, but this unit offers that unique opportunity to be a part of this exciting community without paying a fortune.

Not only is the loft space incredible, but the location is ultra-convenient. The brand new blue line T stop is a 2-3 minute walk. Traveling to the airport is a cinch since you can walk there and avoid parking, taxis, and delays. There are several retail squares throughout East Boston and a large shopping plaza with a supermarket just minutes away. If you need to drive anywhere, every major highway is at your doorstep. The convenient tunnels connect you to Routes 93, 90, and Storrow Drive, and East Boston residents pay only forty cents. It is so quick, with no traffic and no hassles.

East Boston is a truly walking neighborhood. Best yet, the new East Boston Waterfront is just starting to emerge and with that there will be 2000 luxury residences and 65,000 square feet of retail, restaurants, and shops. It sounds like investing at Porter 156 has benefits now and will certainly have benefits as this historical neighborhood transforms into something incredible.
