Winding and funky

Acorn Street in Beacon Hill, Boston

“It’s {Boston} such a great city, visually. You can’t get that kind of look in Canada that you can get in Boston: the old brick historical buildings, the winding streets, the old but funky neighborhoods like Southie and Somerville {actually a separate city}. You can’t get that elsewhere. It’s a very unique place in that way.’’

  -- Brad Anderson, film director

In Somerville, which has rapidly gentrified the past two decades.
