The South End

The South End is composed mostly of mid-nineteenth century bowfronts -- aesthetically uniform rows of five-story, predominantly red-brick structures, of mixed residential and commercial uses. The neighborhood was constructed atop landfill, reclaimed during the filling of Boston's marshy Back Bay (north and west of Washington Street) and South Bay (south and east of Washington Street), from the 1830s to the 1870s. Today, the South End is listed on the United States' National Registry of Historic Places. It is the nation's largest Victorian architectural district. The South End is noted for its extensive collection of restaurants; Tremont Street is often called "Restaurant Row."
