Neighborhood

Cushing Square is a cozy and historic neighborhood in the western Boston suburb of Belmont. With its large houses and dense canopy of trees shading the sidewalks, Cushing Square gives off a distinctly suburban vibe, amplified by the abundance of large parks and golf courses surrounding the community. A small cluster of storefront businesses at the intersection of Trapelo Road and Common Street provides residents with a one-stop shopping and dining destination close to home, featuring everything from a hardware store to a yoga studio to a Greek diner and everything in between.

Burbank Elementary School and WL Chenery Middle School are both within easy walking distance of anywhere in the neighborhood, giving local students the option of walking to class. The neighborhood’s location offers prime access to both Harvard and Tufts, with all of Boston just minutes away.

School data provided by The GreatSchools Rating helps parents compare schools within a state based on a variety of school quality indicators and provides a helpful picture of how effectively each school serves all of its students. Ratings are on a scale of 1 (below average) to 10 (above average) and can include test scores, college readiness, academic progress, advanced courses, equity, discipline and attendance data. We also advise parents to visit schools, consider other information on school performance and programs, and consider family needs as part of the school selection process.

Disappointing experience

Some tenants have been smoking in their apartments for over a year. There is no retail due to the ongoing lawsuit. There is no gym. There are no other amenities without being charged extra. If you’re looking for a luxury apartment, I would not recommend.

8/19/22
Pretty good until new management

I enjoyed living here for the past year despite issues with extremely noisy neighbors. However, there is new management that raised monthly rent by $400 and is now charging $300 (+$300 refundable deposit) to reserve the rooftop deck, which was previously a free service. The rooftop deck is the only amenity at this complex and is supposed to function as a common, shared space. Now, during a time of social reconnection, they’ve decided to profit off the high demand and only allow people with a spare $600 to use the space to celebrate. The new management doesn’t care about the residents - they only care about money, which is disappointing and disgusting.
