Transportation is easily accessible from 323,
with a Green Line trolley stop only steps away. The public
transportation system of the MBTA—known as the "T" to
locals—can carry you to points as close as Fenway Park
in Boston, or as far as Singing Beach in Manchester. Boylston
Street—also known as Route 9—leads into Boston and
out to Route 128, making Boston and the surrounding communities
convenient by car as well.
Brookline Village to the east is an eclectic mix of old-world
charm and urban flair, and is often compared to New York neighborhoods
like SoHo and Greenwich Village. Coolidge Corner to the north
offers trendy eateries, an independent bookstore, and the
Coolidge Cinema with its restore Art Deco marquee. To the
south are the neighborhoods of Pill Hill and The Point, offering
a mix of substantial single-family homes and condominium buildings.
The "Emerald Necklace," the park system designed by Frederick
Law Olmstead that graces Boston in the manner that its name
suggests, offers walking and jogging paths from the Charles
River to Jamaica Pond. To the west lie the Sargeant Estates
and Fisher Hill, both home to many grand estates. Farther
west are several large shopping malls and centers, including
the Chestnut Hill Mall, which feature national chains and
fine boutiques.
