Church Park

Church Park, at 221 Massachusetts Avenue on the line between Boston's Back Bay and the Fenway, is a rental apartment building with 508 residences, completed in 1973 on the west side of Massachusetts Avenue facing Christian Science Plaza.

The Architects Collaborative designed Church Park as a long concrete slab built in three sections, planned alongside I. M. Pei's design for the Christian Science Church Center across the avenue. The complex stretches along Massachusetts Avenue and Westland Avenue and combines apartments with more than 70,000 square feet of ground-floor retail, including a Whole Foods Market in the parking garage on Westland Avenue. The building stayed with its original ownership for five decades, and Brookfield Properties acquired it in 2023.

Residences are studio, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom apartments, and select homes have private terraces or balconies with views over the plaza and the city.

The rooftop includes a resident lounge, outdoor grills, and an outdoor yoga and spin studio. Residents also have a business center with private work pods, a pet and car wash, laundry facilities, garage parking with electric vehicle charging, and mobile building access.

The Symphony Green Line station and the Massachusetts Avenue Orange Line station are steps away, and the Prudential Center, Symphony Hall, and Newbury Street are within a short walk. The building sits where the Fenway meets the Back Bay and the South End, so shops, restaurants, and cultural institutions in all three neighborhoods are close at hand. Everyday errands are easy here too, with a grocery store, pharmacy, hardware store, and cafes on the ground floor of the complex itself.

Church Park pairs one of the larger rental communities in this part of Boston with a central location on Massachusetts Avenue.
