The Boston Globe ranked Hingham’s Main Street as one of the top 20 best streets to live in Greater Boston.
The Globe selected Main Street for its beauty and history.
“When Eleanor Roosevelt extolled the beauty of the nation’s main streets in her book ‘This Is America,’ she was inspired by her 1942 visit to Hingham,” the Globe wrote. “The town looks much the same as it did then, with preserved houses in traditional New England styles.”
According to Boston.com, houses on lower Main Street are priced between $2 million to $3 million and around $800,000 on Upper Main.
Hingham’s Main Street has a beautiful combination of businesses, schools, churches and homes. For travelers, it is a common cut through which connects the South East Expressway with Route 3A.
Other South Shore streets that made the Globe’s list include Nantasket Avenue in Hull, Prospect Hill Drive in Weymouth, Jerusalem Road in Cohasset and Governor Deval Patrick’s street, Hinkley Road in Milton.
