Chinatown
From Boston Neighborhood Map
Boston's Chinatown section is the oldest Chinatown in the United States. It has a colorful history (see Combat Zone) and still has lots of Chinese people and businesses. Its close proximity to downtown, however, has seen lots of redevelopment over the past decade, and the lines that once marked it out as a separate entity are rapidly blurring.

Sections of Chintown are covered by the frustrating "districts" that some people talk about. I think the Leather District is the term I've seen most frequently used in relation to Chinatown.
