The newest luxury destinations that are the talk of the town.
South Boston is where classic lives at the intersection of lively and new. This neighborhood has seen a revitalization in recent years and is now home to many young professionals who have flocked to the area in search of something exciting and contemporary. The area—which is still growing and thriving—has wonderful access to public transportation, which makes traveling throughout the city easy. Here are some of the top places to be looking at in the community.
Allele
Allele prides itself on being a luxurious space to relax and call home. Each of the building’s 54 units consists of floor-to-ceiling windows that are perfect for letting in natural light, and every floor plan is spacious and full of unique touches you won’t find anywhere else. Set in the middle of South Boston, it’s in a prime location, offering easy access to everything from transportation to dining, shopping to beaches.
Distillery North
Distillery North is an innovative, truly unique complex that is quickly becoming an interconnected and sustainable village. Located on East First Street, this building is connected to a 175-year -old rum distillery that now fosters a beautiful and vibrant community of residents, artists, artisans, and small businesses. The open space has been transformed into loft-style residential units above an art gallery that doubles as a working space for artists, a trendy café, retail space, and a parking garage with plenty of space. There are even more plans that include an additional building that will house a grocery market and a three-story greenhouse. Distillery North is an environmentally-conscious and energy-efficient location—it uses only 10% of the energy of a typical newly-constructed building. As the largest project of its type in the United States, it has made history as a model for future developments. This incredible development has truly mastered merging the old with the new.

In addition to the on-site gym, underground garage parking, and concierge, there’s a movie screening facility. It’s in an incredible location within walking distance of hotspots like The South End, Back Bay, and the Boston Financial District, and is a hop away from the Broadway Redline stop.
Court Square Press
With large windows, tall ceilings, and exposed bricks and beams, Court Square Press (a 110-year-old printing press factory that was converted into 130 condos in 2003) is the epitome of contemporary chic meeting historic charm.
