NEIGHBORHOOD

There’s much to love about Boston’s South End — As University students will experience, the elegant, curvy brownstones along Tremont Street, the fantastic shops, restaurants, and Victorian beauty of Columbus Avenue, and the oddly sophisticated yet collegiate feel of Harrison Avenue combine to create a tapestry of a neighborhood that offers something to everyone. This walkable, tree-filled neighborhood offers several parks, some of the best restaurants in Boston, and easy access to Northeastern University.

By renting an apartment in South End Boston, you’ll enjoy walking along brick-paved sidewalks past historic buildings housing everything from trendy boutiques to art galleries to the city’s hottest cafes. You’ll spend afternoons at Southwest Corridor Park, Blackstone Square, and beautiful Franklin Square. South End is popular with artists, and you’ll discover a variety of terrific galleries to explore, especially along Harrison Avenue.

Boston’s South End is south of Beacon Hill, adjacent to Back Bay, and east of Northeastern University. South Boston is on the east side, while Lower Roxbury is to the south. South End Boston is very pedestrian-friendly, with easy access to MBTA rapid transit, especially along Massachusetts Avenue, which is home to the Back Bay and Massachusetts Avenue train stations.
