Welcome to Waterfront

Boston Harbor’s waterfront is one of the city’s most coveted neighborhoods since many of the residences there feature water views. This location runs along the North End and features some of Boston’s premier residences and an array of options from the new luxury residences with hotel amenities at Battery Wharf to Rowe’s Wharf Residences with the Boston Harbor Hotel’s amenities, to the apartment-style Harbor Towers condos to the historic residences at Burroughs Wharf, Union Wharf, Lewis Wharf, and Commercial Wharf, among others. The marinas bring character to the area and convenience to boat owners. Each offers a different feel and lifestyle, but many offer some amazing water views and access to many of the city’s attractions, including the North End, the Aquarium, the Boston Tea Party Museum, Faneuil Hall, the Institute of Contemporary Art, and many more. The Harbor Walk and green space of the Rose Kennedy Greenway offer lovely places to walk and enjoy public art.
