About

Station ward encompasses a portion of Boston's downtown core, centred around the major transportation hubs of South Station and Dewey Square. The area is defined by its dense concentration of commercial office towers, government buildings, and financial institutions. The streets are active with commuters and professionals, with ground-level retail and food services catering to the daytime population. The architecture is largely modern, with glass and steel high-rises dominating the skyline.

A key feature is the historic South Station headhouse, a Beaux-Arts terminal serving as both a functional rail depot and an architectural landmark amidst the contemporary towers. The ward includes the Federal Reserve Bank building and stretches to the edges of the Financial District and Chinatown. Public spaces are limited but include Dewey Square Park, which hosts a seasonal farmers market, providing a brief respite from the urban canyon of surrounding streets.
