North Point

What secrets does North Point hold? This once-forgotten industrial landscape, now a vibrant mixed-use neighborhood in East Cambridge, whispers stories of transformation. North Point, nestled near Charlestown, the West End of Boston, and East Somerville, is a testament to urban revitalization. Here, former railroad yards and industrial sites are making way for modern living, housing developments, and the North American headquarters for EF Education and Hult International School of Business. North Point pulsates with a unique blend of old and new. Imagine living in a loft or a spacious three-bedroom apartment in Museum Towers, Avalon North Point, Twenty|20, or the Zinc Building. North Point isn’t just about buildings. It’s about green spaces too. Picture yourself strolling through the 8.5-acre North Point Park along the Charles River. Or perhaps relaxing in the privately managed North Point Common. For thrill-seekers, there’s the Lynch Family Skatepark, an urban playground beneath the I-93 ramps. At the heart of North Point lies the ambitious Cambridge Crossing project. This 44-acre development, spearheaded by Divco West, is set to transform the area. Imagine a space with 4.4 million square feet of mixed-use development, bordered by the Gilmore Bridge, Glassworks Avenue, Monsignor O’Brien Highway, Water Street, and the MBTA’s Green Line Extension. North Point is more than just a neighborhood. It is a symbol of Cambridge’s dynamism, a place where history meets innovation. A neighborhood where industry gives way to green spaces, and a former railroad yard becomes a vibrant hub for living, learning, and working. North Point beckons, inviting you to discover its evolving story.
