The Edge, at 60 Brainerd Road in Boston's Allston-Brighton neighborhood, is a four-story luxury apartment building with 79 residences, completed in 2013.
Developed by The Mount Vernon Company and designed by Prellwitz Chilinski Associates, The Edge replaced a former warehouse with a building that leans into contemporary design. The exterior combines wood, metal panels, stone, and angular rainscreens, and the building was designed for energy efficiency, with rooftop solar panels and a green lease program for residents. It earned LEED certification and was fully leased before it opened.
Apartments include studios, one-bedroom, and two-bedroom homes, many with loft-style open layouts. Interiors feature floor-to-ceiling windows, 10-foot ceilings, Silestone counters, and in-unit washers and dryers, giving even the smaller homes a bright, airy feel. Layouts are efficient, with open kitchens that flow into the living area.
Amenities are designed for everyday living. Residents have an indoor-outdoor fitness center, a theater room, and a landscaped back patio with a putting green and gas grills. Bike storage, electric vehicle charging, and on-site security round out the building's offerings.
The Edge is part of Allston's Green District, a cluster of energy-efficient apartment buildings near the Brookline line that also includes The Element and Eco Allston. The Green Line runs nearby along Commonwealth Avenue, putting Boston University, Coolidge Corner, and downtown within easy reach, and the restaurants and shops of Harvard Avenue and Brighton Center are a short trip away.
For renters who want a newer, design-forward building with a smaller, community feel, The Edge offers a modern home base in one of Boston's most energetic neighborhoods.
