The Seaport’s latest luxury tower reveals its rent prices
The Watermark Seaport apartments are now available for pre-leasing.
If you have been to Boston’s Seaport neighborhood recently, you might have noticed that the skyline is filled with cranes.
The neighborhood is on the rise. In fact, there are more restaurant seats than homes in the Fort Point neighborhood at the moment. But this won’t be for long, as new construction is everywhere.
Case in point: Another large apartment complex is ready for renters, this one on Seaport Boulevard, across the street from the site of the mammoth One Seaport Square project, coming in 2017. Skanska USA Commercial Development and Twining Properties announced that their Watermark Seaport apartments are now available for pre-leasing
Watermark Seaport stands out in the Fort Point neighborhood it borders, which is otherwise filled with mostly converted industrial loft buildings.
The luxury high-rise at 85 Seaport Boulevard, which was announced in 2012, is a part of the larger Seaport Square project, which has the goal of filling in the large variety of parking lots in the neighborhood.
Story continues after gallery.
Take a look at the Seaport neighborhood throughout the years:
Watermark Seaport has one 17-story luxury tower and a six-story loft building, which will have 346 residences combined.
“Watermark Seaport breaks the typical city residential mold by combining modern lofts with contemporary urban apartments. We are proud to offer a combination of amenities that anyone from young professionals to empty-nesters will enjoy,’’ Shawn Hurley, executive vice president of Skanska USA commercial development in Boston said in a statement.
The new buildings offer a variety of luxury amenities, such as a 24-hour concierge, rooftop deck, grilling areas, underground parking, state-of-the-art fitness center, dog-washing spa, and indoor bike storage.
At the present time studio apartments are starting at $2,300 per month. One-bedrooms are starting at $2,700. Two-bedrooms are starting at $4,200, and three-bedrooms are starting at $4,300.
The first units will be move-in ready by January 2016.
