NEIGHBORHOODS
South End South
Overview
What it lacks for creativity in its name it more than makes up for in the character and charms of this central South End area. The physical homes in this area are impressive and, more often than not, offer parking spaces which is rare in the other desirable South End sub- neighborhoods. While predominantly residential, South End South includes more than a handful of restaurants and coffee shops for neighbors to enjoy. Most of these are on Shawmut Ave or Washington Street.
Location
Flanked by Tremont Street, West Springfield Street, Washington Street, and West Haven Street, South End South sits just north of Lower Roxbury, adjacent to the Back Bay Fens, Symphony, and the Museum of Fine Arts. With easy access to 1-90 and 1-93, South End South is ideal for commuters, busy families, and everyone in between.
