The Waterworks at Chestnut Hill, at 2400-2450 Beacon Street in Chestnut Hill, is a condominium community with 112 residences, completed in 2007.
The community sits on the site of the Chestnut Hill Reservoir waterworks, which supplied water to Boston for nearly a century before its pumps were decommissioned in the 1970s. Developers Diamond Sinacori and EA Fish Associates, working with architect Gund Partnership, converted three historic structures into homes and added a new building, the Watermark, nested into the complex. The original buildings are listed on the National Register as part of the Chestnut Hill Reservoir Historic District, and the project won a Builder magazine Grand award for adaptive reuse. The High Service Pumping Station, a Richardsonian Romanesque landmark designed by Arthur H. Vinal, also houses the Metropolitan Waterworks Museum.
Homes are spread across four buildings: the Watermark at 2400 Beacon Street, the Whitehall at 2420, the Waterford at 2430, and the Museum Residences at 2450. Layouts range from one-bedroom flats to three-bedroom homes, townhouses, and very large residences in the Museum building. Many interiors feature high ceilings, tall windows set into the original masonry, and hardwood floors.
Residents have a concierge, a fitness center, elevator service, and underground garage parking, plus a private courtyard.
The setting is one of the most scenic in the city. The reservoir's walking paths are across Beacon Street, and the Green Line, Cleveland Circle, and Chestnut Hill's shops and restaurants are close by. Brookline and Newton are next door, and downtown Boston is reachable by car or the T.
For buyers who want historic architecture, green space, and full-service living at the city's western edge, The Waterworks at Chestnut Hill offers a one-of-a-kind setting.
