In Jamaica Plain, residents get the best of both worlds; a beautiful suburban town with all the excitement of the city. A hot new property, The Brynx is certainly bringing something new to the table for anyone, especially for those who love the Jamaica Plain neighborhood. Located on South Huntington Ave and just steps from Olmstead Park, The Brynx is a two-building apartment community. It combines both the 1920’s Shepley Bulfinch-designed details and character of the original structure—formerly known as the Goddard House—with the contemporary feel of the newly-built property.

Recently, The Brynx was recognized by Preservation Massachusetts for their 2020 Preservation Awards. The Brynx was honored as one of the best transformative projects that revitalizes the best of the past for something good for the future. Honoring the original architecture and timeless features, the team at The Brynx remixed the property for modern living, nearly 100 years after the building first opened.

As an unrivaled property in the neighborhood, The Brynx has fully embraced the spirit of Jamaica Plain and brings a modern vibrance to a historic building. Each apartment has its own unique touch; with a wide range of styles and layouts, making it the perfect home for anyone. This transformative project still has available units for renters; visit TheBrynx.com for more details about the historic property.
