Howdy Folks,

At Landmark Boston, we love summer and we’re sure you do, to0!

Summertime around Boston is a beautiful time of year. Boston, Cambridge and Watertown, as well as all the surrounding towns, offer  many activities for you, your friends and your family. The area is so much fun, it’s beautiful and the best part of all, everything is just a short walk away. We have come up with some of our favorite things to do in the area. All of which are no more than an 8 minute walk away: You can’t beat that!

Well, we hope you like the list.

Check back soon for more information on our Beautiful Waterfront Townhouses located on the Charles river.

Talk to you soon,
Rob Stella

#1 Explore Cambridge and Boston on the Bike Trail

Mass DCR Bike Trail (0 miles / <1 min)

One of the best amenities 192 Pleasant Street offers is its proximity to the Charles River Bike Trail. The trail runs 27 miles from directly behind the property to Cambridge passing Harvard, MIT and downtown Boston. The trail offers numerous points of interest and spectacular views of Boston along the way.

#2 Take it to the River

Charles River, Watertown (0 miles / <1 min)

While you’re sitting atop your 3rd story roof-deck enjoying the beauty of the Charles River from above, you might just get the urge to explore what it has to offer just downstream. Summertime is short in New England and what better way to take advantage than to see Watertown, Cambridge and Boston from the river? Kayaks are also available for rent nearby at Charles River Canoe and Kayak.
