From Notorious Jail to Luxury Hotel

The Old Charles Street Jail in Boston, MA has been transformed into a Luxury Hotel. The new luxury hotel called "Liberty Hotel" will cost guests anywhere between $319 a night to $5,500 for a presidential suite.

Over the years, the jail has housed a number of famous inmates including James Michael Curley, Sacco and Vanzetti, suffragists imprisoned for protests when President Woodrow Wilson visited Boston in 1919, and World War II prisoners from the German submarine Unterseeboot 234.

In 1973, the US District Court ruled that the jail violated the constitutional rights of the prisoners housed there, though the prison did not officially close until 1990. On Memorial Day of that year, prisoners were moved to the new Suffolk County Jail built on Nashua Street.
