Beacon Hill

The landmark was originally used for warning residents of invasion, but today serves as an archival piece of history.

Welcome to Beacon Hill

Beacon Hill is known for being one of the most expensive areas in Massachusetts. The district was named after the location of a former beacon, which was at the highest point in central Boston. The landmark was originally used for warning residents of invasion, but today serves as an archival piece of history.
 
Made up of brick rowhouses Beacon Hill is renowned for its gas-lit streets and gorgeous brick sidewalks. Charles Street runs along the flat of the hill and is peppered with quaint mom-and-pop restaurants, shops, and cafes. The location between the Boston Common and bordering the Esplanade on the Charles River is ideal where endless recreational activity is at your fingertips.
