9A Monument Square, Charlestown MA. 

I just love Monument Square, and if you want to live in Charlestown, you probably will want to live at this location. Why wouldn’t you, you get this right outside your door everyday.

 The area is so rich in history, and the actual building (9A Monument Square #1) was the former home of the mayor of Charlestown Richard Frothingham. Yesterday I took photos for this listing and it’s a lovely 3+ bedroom that is 2238 sf listed at $1.3 Million you can see more stats here.

This map is popping up all over Boston’s blogosphere. I had to join.

Meant to post this last week when it was more relevant, but this is fabulously Boston. I always love a good timelapse. Bummed that it won’t allow me to embed in the blog, but click on the link and you’ll see it fine.

I was checking out real estate news and saw that Jordan’s home is going up for auction this months on the 22nd. Interesting move on selling it and I wonder if it has a reserve. Personally I think the exterior is pretty stale, but you have to love the history of some of the rooms.  I never understood why homes were ever built with glass blocks as walls, but Jordan decided to make his whole entrance out of them. Oh well, he’s still the man so I can live with that. You can see all the stats at Conceirge Auctions here. They say the previous listing price was 29 million when it actually had a 8 million price drop to 21 Million. A little misleading, but I have a feeling it won’t go for 21 million either.

Here is the video. Pretty solid clip.
