# Emerson Square Condominium
Emerson Square Condominium is a 19-unit residential community housed in the Tuckerman Elementary School, a historically significant brick schoolhouse originally built in 1850 and converted to condominiums in 1992. Located at the heart of South Boston's City Point neighborhood, this architecturally distinctive conversion preserves the building's character while offering modern residential living. The association is self-managed with 14 of 19 units owner-occupied, reflecting strong long-term community investment.
Emerson Square offers a range of configurations to suit different household sizes. One-bedroom units feature open living spaces and some include loft areas of approximately 120 square feet. Two-bedroom, one-bathroom units are the most common offering, typically arranged with south-facing exposures and spacious floor plans. A rare three-bedroom, two-bathroom penthouse unit is also available within the building, making this conversion unusually flexible for a small schoolhouse adaptation.
Residents enjoy a central City Point location steps from East Broadway's shops and restaurants, including proximity to a nearby Starbucks. The neighborhood provides direct access to M-Street Beach and Castle Island recreational areas. Multiple MBTA bus stops (routes 7, 9, 10, and 11) serve the immediate intersection of East Fourth and L Streets, enabling convenient commutes to downtown Boston and beyond.
