BOSTON | Pierce Boston | 378 FT | 30 FLOORS

A 30-story glass tower with 349 residential units (109 condos & 240 rentals) and 20,000-square feet of retail space

Boston's Fenway neighborhood has all the makings to become one of the city's most dynamic communities. It's rich in sports with nearby Fenway Park – home of our beloved Red Sox – it has a startup launching space currently in the works and one of its latest residential buildings sits atop a Target retailer that also boasts a liquor license.

In 2013 the Boston Redevelopment Authority approved construction of another residential tower neighboring Van Ness, the mixed-use development beneath which CityTarget is located, the first urban Target store of its kind on the East Coast.

Originally, the project which is now known as Pierce Boston was slated to be a 22-story building with 320 residential units and 33,292-square feet of ground and second floor retail space.

Revisions to the project brought us to where it stands today: a 30-story glass tower with 349 residential units (109 condos and 240 rentals) and 20,000-square feet of retail space.

Demolition has begun on the Boylston Street site and construction will begin soon with a target completion date of fall 2017. According to the development's website, Pierce Boston's sales gallery will open this year for prospective buyers and renters.

The website bills Pierce Boston as "not only an architectural standout, it is reimagining fine living in one of the nation's most storied cities."

The condos and apartments will range from studios to one-, two- and three-bedroom units. For those residents with vehicles, a subsurface pedestrian connection will link Pierce Boston to the Trilogy Garage.
