Cute article in today’s Boston Globe about the renaming of neighborhoods.
Presumably, people first started renaming neighborhoods for a reason – to make it easier to know where they were talking about.
Unfortunately, it’s now become nothing more than a marketing ploy.
The reporter for this story called me for comment. I gave her lots of great information (much of which made its way into the article), but my name appears nowhere in the story. My pride is hurt!

Another new development, SoHa Lofts (South of Harrison Avenue off of Albany Street) has sprung up in — yes — SoWa. SoCo Lofts, a condo building near Massachusetts and Columbus avenues, is coming soon.
