Positioned at the crossroads of Back Bay and the South End, The Clarendon delivers a refined,full-service living experience with a more classic architectural presence. Designed by Robert A.M. Stern Architects, the building blends traditional materials—brick, stone, and glass—into a design that feels both timeless and contextually grounded within the city.

Residences begin higher in the tower, allowing for elevated views across Boston—from theCharles River to the harbor and surrounding neighborhoods. Floor plans range from efficient layouts to larger penthouse homes, all designed with a focus on proportion, light, and livability. Large windows and thoughtful layouts create a sense of openness without losing a more traditional feel.

Interior finishes lean classic and tailored. Hardwood flooring runs throughout, while kitchens feature rich cabinetry, stone surfaces, and appliances from Sub-Zero, Wolf, andMiele.Bathrooms are finished in stone and onyx, delivering a polished, spa-like experience that aligns with the building’s overall tone.

Amenities are both extensive and well-executed. A 24-hour concierge, doorman, and valet provide seamless service, while resident spaces include the Assouline Culture Lounge, an landscaped outdoor terrace with grilling areas, a private children’s playroom, and a high-end fitness center powered by Equinox. On-site dining at Post 390 adds another layer of convenience. Location is a major advantage. With immediate access to Back Bay, the South End, and nearby shopping and dining corridors, the building offers flexibility—whether you’re heading to Newbury Street or exploring neighborhood restaurants just blocks away.

For buyers seeking a full-service building with traditional architectural roots and a highly livablelocation, The Clarendon offers a balanced alternative—elegant, established, and thoughtfully executed.
