OFF-CENTRE LOFTS
Jamaica Plain, MA 02130

Enjoy modern living in Boston’s “Latin Quarter” in a building with nearly a century of history. Off Centre Lofts is a retrofit and conversion of the St. Norbert’s School, originally part of the Blessed Sacrament Church campus and left abandoned in 2009. These units have been laid out to take maximum advantage of the building’s original Georgian Revival design: massive windows and high ceilings mean abundant natural light, and the naturally high-efficiency brick exterior has been complemented by a 15 kilowatt solar array incorporated into the roof. The Sunnyside neighborhood is home to the Sunnyside-Roundhill Homes - one of the earliest affordable housing initiatives in history and brainchild of philanthropist Robert Treat Paine, president of the Workingman’s Cooperative Bank. Walkable to the Orange and Green lines of the MBTA, two grocery stores, Olmstead Park - part of Boston’s famed ‘Emerald Necklace,’ as well as countless opportunities for shopping and dining, these units are ideal for those who value living in a diverse community steeped in a history of art and activism.
