Experience Worcester
Anna Maria is located minutes away from Worcester, New England’s second largest city, about 40 miles west of Boston. Worcester offers the charm and ease of a college town with the convenience of urban living—including a lively cultural scene, world-class restaurants, close-knit neighborhoods, beautiful parks, and easy access to area transportation.
This booming area has evolved into one of the city’s hippest hangouts, a place to hear great music, enjoy ethnic food, and experience the good times Worcester has to offer. The Canal District is a treat to visit during daylight hours, but the fun really starts after dark.
Everybody’s gotta eat, and Shrewsbury Street is where you’ll find exactly what you’re craving. Worcester’s “Restaurant Row” boasts more than 40 establishments whose offerings range from fine-dining to ethnic cuisine to diner meat loaf, all within 1.5 delicious miles. Bring your appetite.
Worcester’s downtown is undergoing a transformation thanks to the CitySquare project, a $500 million reimagining of the central district that has brought new retail, restaurants, and residential spaces into the city’s hub — with much more to come.
