Our South End office (green arrow) is located at 556 Tremont St., Boston MA 02118.

The South End is bordered on the North and West by the prestigious Back Bay area which has some of the best shopping as well as some of the most expensive property in the U.S. The technical border runs along the Southwest corridor park, which runs between Columbus Ave., with it's fabulous restaurants and beautiful St. Botolph Street with its lovely brownstone homes. St. Botolph is considered by many to be part of the South End, but is technically in Back Bay. 

On the South and West  is Massachusetts Avenue, which features Chester Square, with its huge brownstone homes and condominiums with some of the biggest footprints in the city.

On the North and East is Berkeley/East Berkeley St., beyond which is charming Bay Village and the Theater District.

In the late 1840's and early 1850's, the South End was filled in, and construction began on what was then the most upscale area in the city. After the Back Bay was completed, many of the City's elite built new homes there, and the South End became more of a blue collar area with lots of rooming houses.

In the past 25 years, the South End has changed considerably. It is now almost as upscale as Back Bay, but with more of a neighborly feel. It is home to some of the best, most au courant restaurants in the city. It also has lovely, quiet streets lined with trees, gardens and beautiful brownstones. It also has gorgeous English style squares such as Union Park, Rutland Square, Concord Square, and Worcester Square. It also features the Boston Center for the Arts and The Boston Ballet School . 

The South End features the best in urban living coupled with the feel of a small town.
