Sale history

The most recent transfer covered 3 parcels. The price shown is the whole transaction, not this parcel alone, so any per-square-foot figure is measured across everything the deed conveyed. The county record carries no multi-parcel flag for it; the parcels were identified by their identical price, date and ZIP.

Prices are the consideration recorded in Boston's public property records. Where a qualification code exists it is the assessor's judgement of whether a transfer was arm's length; transfers without one appear unrated rather than assumed clean. Whether a building is on the market today, and at what price, is not a public record and is not shown here — asking prices, listings and lease terms live in private commercial databases.

Data provenance — public records only

  • Boston — MassGIS L3 standardized parcels with the city assessment roll (owner names, mailing addresses, stories, assessed values, last recorded sale). Boston publishes no universal business roll, so no tenant layer is possible from public records here.

Every fact on this page is drawn from the government records above — no listing sites, no scraped platforms, no third-party images. Facts from public records are uncopyrightable; each tenancy row carries its source and match confidence. Records can lag reality — a business-tax receipt or registration at an address is evidence of occupancy, not a lease confirmation.
