Along Massachusetts Avenue in Boston’s South End, these adjoining brownstones showcase the neighborhood’s signature Victorian-era architecture—ornate bay windows, intricate cornices, and rich brickwork that reflect the city’s 19th-century building boom.

Once part of a working-class district and now one of Boston’s most carefully preserved historic neighborhoods, the South End’s rowhouses remain a defining feature of the city’s urban identity and charm.
