15 North Beacon

I moved into 15 NB with my girlfriend at the beginning of our senior year at Boston University (BU), after we each lived in not-so-nice Allston off-campus apartments. Our place at 15NB is cozy and feels like home already, and has, after just a year, become a choice we're ecstatic to have made. The large-building feel, from its gym & rooftop pool to its 24/7 doorman and package collection, was a breath of fresh air after living in student squalor previously. Living at 15NB has felt grown up and... more 'real life,' while still boasting a great Allston location near hip restaurants and bars (Roxy's, Root, Lone Star Taco Bar, Deep Ellum). The building is quiet, relatively affordable, and clean, and has a fantastic team of staff. The one drawback, perhaps, is its lack of proximity to a T stop, although multiple bus routes do have stops very very close. Lee mas
