SSH config file paragraph to open a specific directory on remote server [closed]

Question

Is there a way to specifically ssh into a particular directory in remote location, specifically using the local ssh config file (not terminal)? Something like Dir option in the paragraph below, for example,

    Host remote_dir        Hostname remote_server        User username        Dir path/to/remote_dir/ 

So, if I, ssh using the Host value from above paragraph,

ssh remote_dir 

Then, I would like to be logged in and the terminal to be ready for me at path/to/remote_dir/ of the remote server,

username@remote_server: path/to/remote_dir/ > pwd /home/username/path/to/remote_dir/

In this post on ServerFault, they say you can't do it all through the ssh config file. But you can do it with the ssh config and your .bash_profile or whatever the terminal nerds call it. in the ssh config file add

Host dev   Hostname server.com   User joe 

then in your .bash_profile add an alias

alias domain1="ssh dev -t 'cd domains/domain1; bash'" 

Here the dev refers to what you set up in the config file.

In the Terminal, just type domain1, you will be asked to put in your password and will go straight to the directory. Make a new alias for all your domains and it will make logging in to each one super easy.
