Maverick Square

Maverick Square was originally a major transfer point, with connections to the ferry and later via streetcar. Over the years, it has been bypassed with the addition of tunnels and the subway, but a lot of traffic still flows through the area and it can get pretty noisy. It has the reputation of being crowded and crime-ridden with public housing units, despite major improvements and revitalization efforts. Which isn't to say there aren't any good points. The East Boston Piers Park is right off Maverick Square. It's a beautiful location, partly on land and partly on the pier overlooking the scenic Harbor.

Today, it's informally known as "Little Salvador", and a quick glance at the storefronts along Maverick Square will show you that the population is indeed heavily Spanish-speaking in composition. Convenience stores, laundromats and furniture stores all advertises with Spanish-language signs and the Salvadoran flag hangs in many windows. An eclectic neighborhood and friendly people just about wherever you go.

Bar
Know more? Edit Me
Fabulous little neighborhood pub run by Eddie and Tommy, who really care about their customers. Local old timers will be lining the bar, and the owners like to make it a safe haven in an area that can be kind of rough. Eddie will even drive people home himself to make sure that they make it back in one piece, and on Xmas they serve a dinner for the needy. Great old fashioned music plays, and they serve a "fine selection of beer and cordials." It doesn't matter if you're rich or poor, they'll treat you like family when you walk in the door. TV, Keno, and a jukebox available.
