Neighborhoods
Boston Proper
The Historic Heart & Urban Pulse Boston Proper represents the city’s architectural and cultural foundation. These are the neighborhoods that define the “Hub”—from the gas-lit cobblestones of the 19th-century historic core to the soaring, glass-walled innovation of the waterfront. Living in Boston Proper means prioritizing walkability and immediacy; your morning coffee, your commute, and your social life can all happen within a few city blocks. Here, we specialize in the stewardship of historic brownstones, the revitalization of classic three-deckers, and the savvy acquisition of urban condos that hold their value through every market cycle.
