One of Boston’s most prestigious shopping and dining destinations is found within the Back Bay.

Locals reside in some of the city’s most storied residences featuring architecture simply not found today, while remaining walking distance from many of Boston’s modern pleasures.
In the olden days, the Back Bay was a tidal marsh. Land was reclaimed from the Charles River Basin with construction commencing in the mid-1800s to meet the desire for luxury homes.
