South End

The South End, with its blocks of Victorian brick row houses, upscale restaurants, and art galleries, has become one of the most popular places to live in Boston. It is a classic mix of old and new, and many of the row houses underwent renovation starting in the 1960s. Today, the neighborhood is filled with a diverse mix of families and young professionals and houses a culturally diverse community and a thriving artistic center. Trendy restaurants brush shoulders with coffee shops and Mom & Pop grocery stores along Tremont Street and its side streets all the way down to Washington Street, which is experiencing an artistic revival.
