Awesome South End Video By the Boston Globe
I’ve posted a few videos of Boston and the South End, but I think this best reflects what brings most people to the South End. Check it out.
Great Story about Charlie’s Sandwich Shoppe in the South End.
I’m on a kick with finding videos on Vimeo. Have you ever been to Charlie’s sandwich shoppe on Columbus Ave? If not, it’s an absolute staple in the South End community and it’s history is rich and still vibrant. As a corned beef hash fanatic, I will go out of my way to say their turkey hash is a rival to all corned beef hash plated. It’s not a substitute, but it is a option that should go out there to my fellow corned beef hash lovers. This place is never open when you want it to be and you better not ask for water because thats your job. Check out this video and you will get an idea about the history of this great little spot.

This Makes Me Want to go to Stella in the South End
I love this place and the food is fantastic. Tell me you don’t want the Bolognese after seeing this.

Aerial Video of Boston
I was looking through Vimeo and found this gem. Some guy flew over Boston and put some Gopro cameras on the wings. I zoomed through it quickly, but there are some great and unique views in it. Check it out.

Video about a recent “Green Home” renovation in the South End
I found this video that shows a young family’s recent renovation project here in Boston’s South End. It gives a good idea about architecture and it gives a few interesting ideas on how to make a new development a little “greener.” It’s a great plug by a couple that loves the neighborhood and they are helping bring back to life these wonderful historic buildings. Check it out.
Another Awesome Boston Time Lapse Video
I do love a good Time lapse video and I’ve posted a few in the past. Check this one out. It’s a great montage of many different locations around downtown Boston. Enjoy!!
Vintage Video of Boston’s Charles River
I must admit that i search Youtube and Vimeo for cool and unique things to put on my blog. In this case, this is a short home made film taken of the Charlers River in 1939. Some guy found his dad’s old vhome movie footage and put it up on the web. The clarity is pretty rough, but I like it.
Wonderful Video of the History of the South End…Must Watch!
If you live in the South End or live in Boston, you should watch this video. This was a documentary that was aired by WGBH in 1995. It gives great insight into how the South End used to be and what type of neighborhood it was. A few years ago, I walked through the building Allan Rohan Crite (interviewed) used to own. After he passed, It was on the market for sale and it was a total gut job and the place was in really bad shape. There were a few remnants of his work left in the old run down building, but at the time, I really didn’t have much appreciation for what I was walking through. Now the building is worth millions and has a plaque on it that recognizes the artists contribution to the community. I now imagine how many other buildings have such an amazing history and the stories that are not as public. What a great area.
Two Things I love… The South End and the Phantom Gourmet
If you are ever looking for a new neighborhood to live in or an neighborhood to visit for great eats, I highly recommend the South End. I currently live in the Back Bay but I see myself going to more and more toSouth End restaurants these days. Another thing that I love about Boston is the Phantom Gourmet. Put the two together and you get a fantastic drool fest of South End goodness. Here is a clip featuring some of my favorite places; Masa, Toro, Mistral and Stella. Check it out!
This Coffee Faucet is Amazing!
I want to see developers putting these into kitchens. Why? Because it’s awesome. I might even suggest that my office gets one.
