Boston Little Saigon wins cultural district designation By Nick Stoico Globe Correspondent,Updated May 18, 2021, 6:11 p.m. Email to a Friend A section of Fields Corner in Dorchester will now be known as Boston Little Saigon following a unanimous for the area known for its vibrant Vietnamese community. The vote marks the final step in officially designating the area as a cultural district, a goal since March 2014, when the idea was first brought up by community members. “We are excited about the official cultural district designation,” Annie Le, board president of Boston Little Saigon, said in a statement issued from the mayor’s office. “We hope to bring more awareness of Vietnamese arts and culture that our older generation has instilled in us and captivate new ideas from the younger generation. We look forward to working with everyone to create more arts and business supports in the Fields Corner area.”
