The team at Drago + Toscano has been a long-time partner in helping City Realty provide top quality service to our clients, our investors and the city of Boston as a whole. Their expert guidance has been invaluable in our efforts to secure the necessary approvals for our real estate developments.

Further, Drago + Toscano has also helped us grow our non-profit arm, City Kids, which helps provide educational resources to Boston’s youth. Jeff Drago has since become a member of the City Kids Board of Directors, providing crucial strategic and legal advice to this growing organization.
