Welcome to South Boston

South Boston - Fun for all ages.

The entire city of Boston is full of wonderful attractions, but it is sadly impossible to see them all in a day, a week, or even a lifetime.  Sometimes, it helps to pick a certain neighborhood in Boston and concentrate on the unique culture of that area.

One of the city’s best kept secrets is South Boston.  This is where all the students living in the University of Massachusetts Boston housing and the Northeastern University Apartments visit when they first move into to their respective colleges.  The students in Boston College housing quickly learn of the vibrant culture that South Boston has to offer and are eager to check it out for themselves.  If you are planning on visiting Boston, be sure to check out the following South Boston attractions:
John F Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum
Located right on Columbia Point, near the University of Massachusetts Boston rentals, the John F Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum is the official tribute to a great president and man.  Explore the digital archives, a massive collection of stored letters, pictures and documents from JFK’s presidency.  You can imagine the rigors of a president’s day as you sit in the very same desk that Kennedy used in the Oval Office.  A brand new exhibit highlights the beautiful Jackie O and what she had to say in her famous 1964 interview.  There are also plenty of unique research opportunities for high school students and teachers, as well as those living in Boston College apartments.
Castle Island
This stunning park overlooks Pleasure Bay and and Boston Harbor on the Waterfront.  The main attraction of Castle Island is Fort Independence, a huge military fortress built between 1834 and 1851. Visitors flock from all over to see the grand structure of Fort Independence, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.  Other visitors prefer sunbathing on the M Street Beach or Carson Beach. The rest of the park is connected by a scenic walkway.  If you wish, you can take the walkway from Castle Island all the way to the John F Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum.
Boston Children’s Museum
If you are visiting South Boston with kids, you’ll definitely want to stop by the Boston Children’s Museum.  For over 90 years, this museum has been delighting children and adults from all over the world.  The museum has a refreshing emphasis on hands-on learning, so you don’t have to worry about trying to hold your kids back from touching everything in sight.  Have your children burn off some of their excess energy at the Construction Zone, where they can ride a real Bobcat, use a jackhammer and dig, build and tear down to their heart’s content.  The Science Playground guides children through the amazing world of nature, by allowing them to investigate just like an adult scientist.  And on the KidStage, children can experience the joy of performing for others.
Fort Point Arts Community Gallery
A short walk from the Boston Children’s Museum and the Brighton Apartments, the Fort Point Arts Community Gallery is the hidden gem of South Boston.  Recognized as one of the largest artists’ communities in all of New England, the gallery features work from over 300 talented artists.  The beautiful artwork on display includes paintings, photography, sculptures, drawings and much more.  During the annual Open Studios event, visitors can get a taste of the daily lives of Boston’s finest artists.
Whether you are staying in the Fenway apartments or in Southie rentals, you’ll have no trouble keeping yourself busy in South Boston.  The neighborhood has a wealth of attractions, with something to do for every visitor.

Take a tour at Boston's Harpoon BreweryAnyone who has attended Boston University or the nearby Newton Campus of Boston College will agree that he got much of his education after class. Both campuses are located close to one of the most sophisticated cities in America.  An area that teams with fascinating things to see and do. Those who live in Suffolk University apartments or Berklee  apartments are fortunate to be near Chinatown, the Theatre District and, of course, just a short cab ride to the famous Harpoon Brewery.

The Harpoon Brewery is within blocks of several South Boston apartments which provide great UMass housing opportunities for students. When you get some time away from the books, take a ride down to this famous brewery. They love visitors and will happily give you a tour of the place.

The brewery is only open for tours on the weekend and visitors are encouraged to get their tickets early, because the tours sell out fast. That’s right, this place is so popular that you have to buy a ticket to get in. Saturday tours begin at 10:30 a.m., and a group is allowed in to start their tour every half hour until 5 p.m. However, the tickets are often sold out by 2 p.m. On Sundays, tours launch every half hour from 11:30 a.m. until 3 p.m. While you are waiting for your turn, you can visit the nearby Institute of Contemporary Art or lounge at a neighborhood pub or restaurant.

Tickets for the tour are $5.00, and the cost is well worth it. Your guide will take you through the brewery and explain each step in the beer-making process. No brewing or bottling is actually taking place on the weekend, but that gives you a chance to get close to the equipment. The best part is at the end where, if you are over 21, you are given a free souvenir glass and invited to indulge in some of the frothy stuff you just learned about.

Tasters are given samples of Harpoon’s two premium brands: UFO and Harpoon. Harpoon does not have an open bar; the tasting is part of the tour. It is narrated so that you will acquire a better understanding of what you are drinking. You will learn to appreciate the flavor of fine beer and to tell the difference in quality.

The tasting room is spacious and can accommodate up to 80 people at a time. It features a Brewhouse platform overlooking the brewery. For those who wish to see the factory in operation, Harpoon encourages visitors to come to their weekday tastings held Monday through Fridays at 2 p.m. and 4 p.m. These events are free and include complimentary samples of Harpoon and UFO beers. These samplings are also narrated, and include a history of Harpoon and an explanation of the brewing process. Free beer is, of course, very popular with the local college crowd, so come early.

Whether you are taking the tour, or attending a tasting, Harpoon encourages anyone who can to come by public transit since parking spaces in the area are limited. This is convenient for those who are fortunate enough to live in the vicinity. If you want to be a part of the downtown culture of this vibrant, exciting city, browse through available  Boston neighborhood apartments through Warren Rentals and contact one of our expert real estate agents today!

Things for Students to do in Boston over Thanksgiving Break

Posted by nwarren at 17 November 2011

It doesn’t matter whether you’re heading to Boston for the holidays or if you call it your home, there’s a variety of activities that cater to the young adult crowd to make your four- or five-day Thanksgiving break an enjoyable one.

Boston Nightlife

Nightlife
The Wednesday before Thanksgiving is the biggest bar night of the year. All of your friends are back home and you’re all ready to meet up, knock a few cold ones back and reminisce about your respective schools, jobs, families and lives. And if you’re living in Boston University Apartments or other Boston college apartments in the area, you’re within walking distance from a number of college bars that cater to the younger crowds. Such establishments include Great Scott, Our House West, The Kells, T Anthony’s and the Paradise Rock Club and Lounge. There’s also things to do if you’re living further away from the city in the west-side neighborhoods of Allston and/or Brighton, such as the Deep Ellum and Draft Bar and Grille.

Boston sports activities

Sports
Living in Boston College or Boston University apartments? Then you’re close to one of Boston’s professional sports franchises, several of which are hitting full stride around Thanksgiving. If hockey is your thing, be sure to catch the 2010-11 Stanley Cup Champion Boston Bruins. The Bruins host the Detroit Red Wings and Winnipeg Jets on back-to-back nights starting November 25 at the TD Garden. The defending champs are more than enough excitement to help you get over the Red Sox’s September collapse!

Boston duck boat tours

Take a Tour
Just because you live in Boston doesn’t mean you can’t still enjoy all that it has to offer. Don’t take your city for granted, leave your apartment and head downtown to take a “duck boat” tour. The tours show you the sights and sounds of the city, both by land and by sea. Or tie one on with a tour of the Sam Adam’s brewery, which depart every 45 minutes from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. most weekdays. Boston is a place that literally just has an aura of history. You might even choose to make your own tour. Take a walk down to the Boston Harbor where the Boston Tea Party took place or past Fenway Park, the oldest ballpark in the MLB.

Boston Common. Enjoying the outdoors of the city.

Enjoy the Outdoors
Just 0.2 miles from the city center is the Boston Commons. What Central Park is to New York City is what the Boston Commons is to Boston. The 50-acre park is the among the oldest in the country and serves as the starting point for a system of connected parks that wind throughout the city’s neighborhoods. If you’re looking to get out of your apartment and wind down, head to “the Common” It’s perfect for walking, jogging, people-watching or just taking in the city that surrounds you. You shouldn’t be thinking about that term paper on your Thanksgiving break, but if you’re looking for some writing inspiration, the Common might be able to help. Martin Luther King Jr. and Pope John Paul III have given speeches at the famed park.

Culture and shopping on Boston's famous Newbury Street.

Take in the Culture
Head over to Newbury Street and browse 15 art galleries that line either side of the road. While you’re there, be sure to stop into Newbury Fine Arts, where you’ll see paintings by Ronnie Wood, the famed Rolling Stones guitarist/artist. It’s a great way to kill some time in between your other stops throughout the city. Plus, as an added benefit, it’s free to browse the galleries. What’s more is it’s just a short commute from downtown apartments and also manageable from west-side Allston and Brighton rentals

5 Space-Saving Ways To Decorate Your Apartment

If you have an apartment in an urban area like Boston, space can be a hot commodity.  It is often difficult to furnish an apartment tastefully without crowding the available space.  Here are some tricks to boost the feeling of spaciousness in your apartment:

Armless Furniture

Armrests on couches or chairs divide space and close their piece of furniture off from the rest of the room.  Armless furniture is more open to the rest of the room.  The feeling that the furniture can be accessed from all sides makes the entire area seem more accessible as well.

Lose the Armrests and Save Space with Shallow ShelvesShallow Shelves

Rather than mounting standard shelves on your walls that are approximately a foot deep, mount shelves that are just a few inches deep.  They still serve most basic practical purposes, and they do not cut into the room as much.  Try setting pictures on them that lean against the wall as a clever way to decorate your space.

Multipurpose Ottomans

It is very easy to find fashionable ottomans that double as storage and/or a coffee table.  This is a simple way to eliminate another small piece of furniture only needed for storage, such as an end-table.  Even if you do not have furniture that a storage-ready ottoman can replace, it can be an easy way to cover up clutter that complicates the room.

Mirrors

A well-placed mirror can create the illusion of increased space.  In a way, mirrors make it seem that there is a whole other room that can be looked into.  A mirror placed between two bookcases create a subconscious feeling of an added window.

Lighting

Make sure that the room is evenly and sufficiently lit.  Ample lighting opens up a space.  If your apartment suffers from a lack of light, you could replace current bulbs with higher wattage ones.  Adding lights is often helpful.  If you are not allowed to install or change built-in overhead lighting in your apartment, look for space-efficient floor or surface lamps.

Still not enough space?

Maybe you just need a new place!  Contact Warren Rentals for information about apartment listings in the Boston area.

10. Freedom Trail. Take a beautiful day and walk it. It’s like three miles, and you get to hit all the major historical parts of town. Start from the common and follow the red brick path.

Price – Free

9. USS Constitution. Old Ironsides… the oldest commissioned warship still afloat in the United States Navy. Take a guided tour provided by active-duty US Navy Sailors that delves into American history and Navy heritage, going as far back as the Revolutionary War.

Price – Free

8. Museum of Fine Arts. It’s got impressionism, expressionism, realism, cubism, and every other “ism” you could think of. Not to mention it has plenty of mummies, treasures and sculptures of antiquity that would impress Dr. Indiana Jones himself.

Price – $20 for one adult.

7. The Boston Public Library. Aside from the countless books, movies and music, Boston’s main library is filled with amazing art, exhibits and architecture. It’s definitely one of those places where you can lose yourself for hours. Also, they have guided tours provided that tells more about the extraordinary treasures it holds.

Price – Free

6. Bowl of Clam Chowder. Everyone in New England has their own preference when in it comes to their clam chowder, but why not do it right. Sure, you could order a bowl at Legal Seafoods, but the more cultural experience can be found at Ye Olde Union Oyster House. Ask for booth 18, it’s where JFK enjoyed his cup o’ chowdah and daily dose of the Globe during his days at the State House.

Price – About five bucks.

5. Massachusetts State House. Resting on Beacon Hill with its majestic golden dome overlooking the Boston Common, the State House is an impressive sight.

Price – A few bucks and some change.

3. Sam Adams Brewery Tour. We’ve seen all those lovable average Joes from the commercials telling us how much they love making beer. And it’s through their appreciation of that craft, along with everyone else’s love for beer, that the brewery offers 45-minute tours, providing samples all along the way. This is one outing not to be missed.

Price – Free

2. Fenway Park Tour. You don’t have to be a Red Sox fanatic or baseball enthusiast to love this tour. It has it all… the stories, the history, the rivalries, the heroes; It’s an experience that will make you fall in love with one of the oldest baseball stadiums on Earth.

Price – $12 for one adult.

1. A Pint or few at an Irish Pub. This could be any Irish pub. They’re found, what seems to be, at every square block in Boston. But if you know where to look, you could find that one place where the Guinness is flowing and the folk songs are song. You haven’t experienced the real Boston until you’ve gotten wicked smashed with Irishmen fresh off the boat. Fighting optional.

Price – Whatever you got in your wallet.

Rental Terms, Demystified!

Posted by nwarren at 22 November 2010

When starting your search for Boston real estate or Boston rental property, it is important that you fully understand the language used in listings.  It can be confusing for first time renters to decipher the lingo they are faced with, especially on sites like Craigslist.com.  So here are the terms, broken down so you won’t be confused when someone shows you a 1 bedroom split!

Example Studio Layout

Studio: A Boston studio apartment is basically an apartment that is all in one room.  There is no separate bedroom or kitchen – the living room, bedroom, and kitchen are all in one big room.  Sometimes there is a slightly separated place for your bed that allows for some privacy (called an alcove studio) or a galley style kitchen.  These are great for someone living alone who doesn’t mind entertaining guests in their bedroom/living room/dining room condo.

One, Two, Three Bedroom Apartments: These all mean the same thing: the bedroom(s) is separated from the common living space.  This offers much more privacy and also allows for much more space.  A one bedroom apartment is like a studio in that they are meant for one person or a couple but there is a separate living room and separate bedroom.

Split apartments: This kind of apartment is further divided in terms of rent.  This occurs when the living room is turned into another bedroom.  For example, a ½ bedroom split is technically a one bedroom, but the living room is turned into a second bedroom.  This is a great option for roommates looking to save money, or those that don’t feel a need for a designated living room.  Many of these split apartments have foyers and eat-in kitchens that serve as the common space.  There are many Allston apartments that are technically split, thanks to the older architecture that left hinges on all the doors – even the living room!

Condos : A condo is simply an apartment that is for sale rather than for rent.  They are usually in high quality buildings, and are maintained by a collaborative condo trust.

Bathrooms: A full bathroom has FOUR parts: sink bathtub, shower, and toilet.  A ½ bathroom only has a sink and a toilet.   A ¼ bathroom (these are super rare, but just in case) has only a sink, and a ¾ bathroom has a toilet, sink, and shower stall (no tub!)

Hopefully these terms have been demystified a bit.  If you have any questions, or are ready to start the search for your dream Boston apartment – contact a Warren Rentals Agent!

Boston Ranks #1 for Singles!

“For single women, Boston has it all.”  Maybe Sex and the City should film a movie in Boston – SingleMindedWomen.com named Boston #1 on their 2010 list of the top 10 cities for single women.  The website calculated the results based on factors such as living costs, amenities, gender ratios, education levels, and diversity.

Boston Commons
As far as the cost of living is concerned, Boston is actually less expensive than many other cities (including New York, Washington D.C. and even Seattle.)  “The reasonable cost of living in Boston, coupled with big city salaries, allows  single women to splurge on entertainment, and  in this city there’s plenty to do.” Whether you  choose a Back Bay condo or an Allston apartment,  there definitely is plenty to do; sports arenas, fancy restaurants, comedy clubs, music venues and neighborhood bars fill every corner of Boston.

Within the city there are endless opportunities for  entertainment and socializing, but what Boston has to offer the single social butterfly is not confined to Boston Proper.  Step out of your Boston apartment, jump on a quick train in any direction and end up at vintage flea markets in the spring, fabulous beaches in the summer, gorgeous New England apple orchards in the fall, or one of the fantastic mountains for skiing and snowboarding in the winter.  Meanwhile, Logan International Airport is right in East Boston; with over 1,100 flights per day, it makes a long vacation or a quick get-away easy as pie!

The website also considered the diverse personal tastes of single women.  Based on the architectural diversity of Boston apartments (from historic brownstone to luxury high rise and everything in between) and the vast amount of boutiques and stores on Newbury Street, Charles Street, and in the Prudential Center, Boston ranked number one in personal style.

Finally, the website deemed the single population here already to be career minded, educated (you can’t throw a stone in the city without hitting a college,) and diverse.  Top all of this off with the fact that 1/3rd of the population is single and the winning formula is clear!

To find out more about relocation, contact a Warren Rentals agent to learn more about Boston apartments and condos.
