I often sit around worrying that Boston and its surrounding suburbs might not have enough “luxury housing” yet. Here’s an article about transit-oriented development from the Globe that reassured me that the impending “luxury housing” shortage was being addressed in Newton. Whew, what a relief!

It may surprise you, but here in Dorchester we have “luxury housing,” too. This row of condos here across from the cash checking place and a Dunkin Donuts was advertised as luxury living.

What makes it “luxury living” you ask? Is it the prime location at the industrial end of Mass Ave., just minutes from South Bay Shopping Center with its luxury shops like Marshall’s, Target, and Old Navy? Well, that could be part of it. But clearly the biggest draw, and the most obvious perk of living here is the luxury KFC less than a minute from your door. Open your window and you can actually smell that luxury fried chicken the Colonel’s cookin’ up!
