Back Bay Neighborhood
September 15, 2008
Back Bay is one of America’s most desirable neighborhoods. Newbury Street, Boylston Street and Commonwealth Avenue are lined with unique shops, trendy restaurants and vintage homes, making the Back Bay an extremely fashionable destination for Boston residents and visitors. In fact, it’s not uncommon to spot celebrities strolling up and down these picturesque streets. Architecturally the neighborhood is dominated by Victorian brownstone buildings in its northern, more residential portion; the southern part of the neighborhood is far more commercial and is home to some of Boston’s tallest skyscrapers, the Prudential Center and the John Hancock Tower, in addition to architectural treasures such as Trinity Church and the Boston Public Library. Back Bay has some of the most expensive homes and condominiums in the state of MA. Real Estate prices for townhomes frequently sell for 7 million and up. Some ranging into the 20’s and 30’s. Condominiums can run $500 - $700 a square foot and higher for luxury properties.
