Fort Point Channel Historic District
Fort Point Channel Historic District, Historic district in South Boston, Massachusetts.
The Fort Point Channel Historic District extends across 55 acres along Congress, Summer, and A streets on the southern side of Fort Point Channel.
The Boston Wharf Company developed this industrial area from 1836 to 1882, constructing buildings for sugar manufacturing and wool trade storage purposes.
Artists established studios in the former warehouse spaces, making this district the largest concentration of creative workspaces in New England.

Each building constructed by the Boston Wharf Company displays a circular copper crest relief, marking their ownership and architectural legacy.
