Boston's Leather District is located between Chinatown, Downtown and South Station. In recent years the Leather District has emerged as a distinct Boston neighborhood. Made up of old leather factories transformed into residential and commercial uses, the Leather District boasts a historic appeal while offering 21-century amenities. Residents cherish the “loft living” options that characterize this community. Leather District lofts offer exposed brick walls, tall ceilings, and open concept living. Locals do not have to travel far to sample some great restaurants, cafés and shopping destinations. The Leather District also experiences the splendor of the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway.
