Jamaica Plain

Jamaica Plain, Boston

Jamaica Plain is a leafy, diverse Boston neighborhood annexed by the city in 1874. Once a brewery district and one of America's first streetcar suburbs, it now blends Latino culture, an active arts scene, and a generous share of Olmsted's Emerald Necklace parks.
