About The Nia

The Nia introduces a quietly radical idea to Boston living. Where charm comes not from polish, but from thoughtful design and everyday clarity. This isn’t an out-of-touch showpiece; it’s a space with soul, grounded in comfort and crafted with... intention. Inside, one- and two-bedroom apartments offer a lived-in ease, while amenities like a secure ButterflyMX entry system, an on-site gym, a dedicated work-from-home room, and private storage units meet the real needs of modern city life. Designed to Passive House standards, each residence is remarkably energy-efficient and exceptionally quiet, offering a more comfortable and sustainable living experience. From the indoor bike room with a repair station to a dog wash designed for daily use, every element reflects an honest approach to convenience and connection.

Outdoors, residents enjoy a patio with a BBQ grill, a communal roof deck, and two private rooftop spaces, places to truly unwind, gather, and take in the city. Whether you're coming home from downtown Boston or in from a day traversing around Somerville, The Nia feels warm, inclusive, and deeply human. It’s a community that favors substance over spectacle, inviting you to experience the quiet joy of real life, well-designed.
