Shopping in Downtown Crossing

Downtown Crossing's discount shops, jewelry brokers, and specialty stores make it the ideal destination to fulfill any shopping need. The area's many amenities, clustered along Washington Street between Tremont and the Financial District, make it easy to hop from shop to shop. Downtown Crossing was created in 1978, when the city made the intersection of Washington, Summer, and Winter Streets a pedestrian-only zone.
