Construction-worker-turned-mayor Martin J. Walsh, who helped build some of the early projects in Boston’s Seaport District, cut the ribbon today on Waterside Place, the 236-unit luxury apartment tower on Congress Street.
At today’s ceremony, Walsh praised John Drew, the developer of the 350,000-square-foot mixed-use property located on a three-acre parcel at the intersection of Summer, D and Congress streets. He said Drew imagined a neighborhood in Seaport when it was just a deserted rail yard.
