Quarterra Group Announces Start of Leasing at Harper Apartments

265-Home Mid-Rise Community Welcomes Residents to Boston's Allston Neighborhood , /PRNewswire/ -- Quarterra Group, a subsidiary of Lennar Corporation and a real estate investment and development firm, has announced the start of leasing at Harper, a mid-rise community in the heart of Boston's burgeoning, art-centric Allston neighborhood. The management of Harper falls under the recent merger agreement between Quarterra Living, the property management division of Quarterra Group, and RKW Residential, the property management arm for Alfred. Harper adds 265 apartment homes to Allston, which has emerged as Boston's hub for public art displays, unique music venues, and a lively restaurant and nightlife scene that has become popular with young professionals. The neighborhood also continues to attract a large student demographic, due to its location at the center of Boston's top universities – Harvard University, Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), Boston College, Tufts University and Boston University. "Allston is Boston's artistic and intellectual epicenter, with world-renowned academic institutions and well-established visual and performing arts centers. Harper puts residents at the heart of these stimulating and inspiring cultural opportunities," said Dan Lee, Managing Director of Quarterra Group's Northeast Division. "While Harper is ideally situated to enjoy all the neighborhood has to offer, residents can also soak in the city from the comfort of multiple rooftop decks, engage with the community's interactive streetscapes, and enjoy the luxuriously landscaped green space. Harper captures the vibrant energy and artistic spirit of Allston, bringing it home for an unparalleled living experience." Harper's enviable location at 40 Rugg Road puts residents within easy reach of numerous cultural attractions, including the Museum of Fine Arts, the Honan-Allston Branch of the Boston Public Library and the annual Allston Village Street Fair. Residents will enjoy nearby Magazine Beach, Ringer Playground, Artesani Wading Pool and Spray Deck, Arsenal Community Park and Skate Park, Penniman Road Play Area, and Mansfield Street Dog Park. The community is close to several sports venues, like historic Fenway Park, home of the Red Sox; Warrior Ice Arena, practice facility for the Boston Bruins; Auerbach Center, practice facility for the Boston Celtics; and the Track at New Balance multisport complex. Allston's retail, dining and nightlife district is within walking distance along Harvard Avenue and Cambridge Street. The Allston Yards mixed-use development, with 50,000 square feet of retail and a new, 67,000 flagship Stop & Shop grocery store, is only a quarter mile away. Less than a half mile away, the mixed-use Boston Landing development features 25 shops and restaurants. Major employers in the Boston Landing campus include the New Balance headquarters, WGBH-TV, Proteostasis Therapeutics, Roche Diagnostics and Mass Innovation Labs. Regional connectivity from Harper is simplified by the community's proximity to multiple transit options. The Boston Landing MBTA Commuter Rail station is less than a half mile walk from the community, providing direct access to Boston's Yawkey (Longwood), Back Bay and South Station along the Framingham/Worcester line. The train accesses most entertainment and commercial hubs – including Fenway and the financial district – in less than 15 minutes. Harper is also located half a mile from the Harvard Avenue Station of the MBTA Green light rail station. The community has excellent highway connectivity with the Mass Pike (I-90) and Boston's other major thoroughfares just minutes away. In addition to studio, one- and two-bedroom apartment homes — ranging from 450 to 1,120 square feet — eight specially designated artist studio units are also available. All homes feature stainless steel appliances, quartz countertops, wood-inspired flooring throughout, keyless entries, under-cabinet lighting and movable islands in select floor plans. Residents have access to a club room with a fireplace lounge, a fitness studio with flex space, co-working spaces with a private conference room, an artist studio, dog run and pet spa, bike storage rooms and a fully automated parking garage. Harper is highlighted by two rooftop decks, 11,000 square feet of landscaped green space, interactive streetscapes and 2,500 square feet of ground-floor retail space. The community's environmentally thoughtful design will earn a LEED Gold certification. Harper is one of Quarterra's first two communities in Massachusetts, joining Artemas in Everett, Mass.
