There is a nice $700k 2 bedroom condo within walking distance of here.

No. You are a troll. This is the projects. There are no condos anywhere near here.

I can show you at least a dozen condo complexes within a very short walk of here. You need to look at a map. South Boston probably has the highest amount of subsidized housing in the City. Many condos are on the perimeter of these projects.

out of state rich kids who like to tell you that they live in "Sao-thie"

I don't know Southie that well, but I decided to look at property transactions on Thomas Park, what I would consider walking distance from the scene (though it would be easier to walk from Thomas Park than to there due to the hill.) Sure enough, 40 Thomas Park, unit 1, was sold for $800,000 on March 9th. I can't link to the info, but the Registry of Deeds website can be your friend.

The guy would have made a better point to say that it's not like these condos are anywhere Andrew Square, but then again, I'm not him (or her.)

Are their projects in the South End? Shootings? $800k condos?

By Waquiot on Mon, 10/19/2015 - 9:19am.

The South End is what a lot of people are worried the whole city will turn into- affluence with pockets of poverty. Therefore, a half million dollar condo in the basement of a building across the streets from public (or subsidized) housing is nothing.

Lol. Check out Mowhawk st. $650k 2 beds galore.

Check out your eyes son, that's Mohawk, Mohawk.
Ps. More comments regarding a shot up car in South Boston than a morning rush-hour shootout near 'Candy Land'.

Do you know what realtors hate more than bad press about Southie? Having to list a luxury condo that comes with no parking spaces.

By Waquiot on Sun, 10/18/2015 - 11:50am.

If you park on the street, there's a chance your car will get shot up.

By Lmo on Sat, 10/17/2015 - 12:14pm.

Don't kid yourself, ever hear of D street? Close to million dollar condos for sale a block or 2 away from projects. Southie is only 3 sq miles

By anon on Sat, 10/17/2015 - 5:28pm.

There are multi million dollar residences right next door to public housing in the South End. There have been shootings in every neighborhood in Boston. It's called living in a city.

By Really on Sun, 10/18/2015 - 12:31pm.

The only difference between luxury condos and the projects is what the fools actually pay to live there.

Anti-car attitudes on Uhub and cars shot up on the streets. It never ends.

By Waquiot on Sat, 10/17/2015 - 10:50am.

Someone's shooting these cans!!!!

By AAAnon on Sun, 10/18/2015 - 1:22am.

And try driving a car. It's so much more enjoyable.

Well, it's a marvelous night for a shooting
With the target light up in the shooter's eyes
A fantabulous night to make mayhem
'Neath the cover of October skies
And all the sleazes in the hood are falling
To the sound of the shots that were let go
And I'm on the floor with the dispatcher I'm calling
of the police that respond o so slow
And all the night's witnesses seem to disappear in a rush
And all the EMS hustle in on the blood that has gushed.

As seen from the turret
