About the Building
A Thoughtfully Restored River North Loft
The Boylston Lofts is an adaptive-reuse residential building in the heart of River North. We're preserving the architectural details that made this block matter — exposed brick, timber framing, oversized industrial windows, generous ceiling heights — and pairing them with modern kitchens, updated baths, in-unit laundry, and the everyday services renters expect today.
Every residence is different. Every window has a story. Come see it in person.
