Wollaston is a neighborhood that contains a unique blend of residences and businesses, approximately eight miles south of Downtown Boston. Several apartment communities surround the Wollaston T Stop on the MBTA Red Line, which means you can be in Boston in about 30 minutes. Wollaston’s proximity to Quincy Center puts the heart of Quincy within walking distance of your rental apartment.
Music lovers living here recommend PorchFest, a yearly event where musicians perform free concerts from their front porches. Stroll through the neighborhood listening to music, and then walk over to Hancock Street for creative maki rolls at Hokkaido Sushi Restaurant. Spicy curry from the Pad Thai Restaurant is also a local favorite.
Wollaston is home to Quincy’s largest park, Merrymount Park. During the summer months, take in a performance at the Ruth Gordon Amphitheater. After, set sail from Ryan Boathouse or picnic along Blacks Creek.
