Back Bay Real Estate
Adorned with the backdrop of the scenic Charles River, the Back Bay is one of Boston’s most lively, popular and expensive neighborhoods. From century-old brownstones pressed shoulder-to-shoulder on Marlborough Street to modern condo high-rises flanking the Prudential and John Hancock towers, the Back Bay has universal appeal.
Tourists and residents alike flock to this area for the renowned Boston Public Library, Copley Square and its impressive Trinity Church as its centerpiece, plentiful art galleries and perhaps most notable, the beautiful Boston Public Garden. Newbury Street, Boston’s most well-known street for shopping and dining al fresco, is the City’s best locale for people watching and to “see and be seen.” The Back Bay is a center of activity as the neighborhood is second to downtown in large-scale office towers, which keep the area bustling with residents, office workers and tourists from dawn through dusk. Commonwealth Avenue, modeled after the boulevards of Paris, is a beautiful tree-lined thoroughfare and a not-to-be-missed sight during peak fall foliage as well as after a white winter storm.
Housing stock in the Back Bay is highly coveted and turnover is low in large part due to its wide appeal. The neighborhood is centrally located and public transportation-friendly with shopping, dining, cultural and professional entities coexisting to form one of Boston’s most popular destinations.
