A recent drastic transformation occured in September 2008 in Boston when the Charles Street Jail, built in 1851, was given a facelift and is now a 300-room luxury hotel, called Liberty Hotel. It comes equipped with 10 suites, 3 restaurants, lounges and a fitness center.
The architects, Cambridge Seven Associates went to great pains to preserve the original granite jail structure, and many original features of the jail, including the historic catwalks. This is what makes Liberty Hotel so unique, it’s very distinct jail-like ambience. If the building was home to infamous criminals before, now it’s already a place for famous celebrities including the likes of Mick Jagger, Eva Mendes, Meg Ryan and Annette Bening, who have paid a visit into ‘jail’ there.
