Amenities & Features

Based on listing details, residences and the building offer:

  • Floor-to-ceiling windows in most units, with over-sized glass in every room in many homes
  • High ceilings ranging from 10 to 12 feet, contributing to the open, loft-like feel
  • Bamboo floors and gleaming hardwood floors
  • Designer kitchens with stainless steel appliances (Bosch in several units), Caesarstone, Silestone, granite, or quartz counters, breakfast bars, and waterfall islands
  • Private outdoor space in select units—balconies, terraces, garden patios, and private roof decks
  • Garage parking, including heated garage parking, in select units
  • California Closets and walk-in double closets in some homes
  • Professionally managed, elevator building

Unit Types & Layouts

The Allele offers a range of loft-style layouts. One-bedroom and 1+ bedroom homes frequently exceed 1,000 square feet, some with bonus rooms suited to a study or office. Two-bedroom, two-bath residences are common, including a widely marketed 1,117-square-foot floor plan. Larger corner units from Phase II include 2+ bedroom layouts with private roof decks and garage parking. At the top of the range are penthouse units and rare three-bedroom corner homes—one listing highlighted a 1,557-square-foot high-floor unit with carbonized vertical-grain bamboo floors and a 672-square-foot combined living/dining/office space.

Living at The Allele

The building sits at the gateway to the South Boston/Waterfront District, positioning residents moments from the South End, Back Bay, Downtown, Copley Square, and the Financial District. Commuting is straightforward: the Broadway T stop on the Red Line is essentially next door—one block from a train station—with quick access to I-93 and the Mass Pike (I-90). Logan Airport is under 10 minutes away, and Copley shopping about 7 minutes. Everyday conveniences include Whole Foods, Trader Joe's, and the #11 bus. Some upper-floor units enjoy views of Boston Harbor and passing cruise ships.
