100 Memorial Drive Apartments: One of the best overall packages in Boston (Recommending!)

2009-09-10T21:29:45-06:00

The slight downsides include snobby and overly ... [click to read full apartment review]

100 Memorial Drive Apartments: I love it (Recommending!)

2008-05-17T10:40:27-06:00

From meow9th: The convenience to T stop, MIT campus, and Kendall Square is unbeatable. Unlike the other reviewers, I have not seen a single roach or other pest, and I think the kitchen and the bathroom are fine.

CONVENIENCE
5 minutes to i93; 3 minutes to mass ave; 2 minutes to Longfellow; 0 minutes to the MIT campus; 1 block ... [click to read full apartment review]
