Located at 165 Thorndike, this thoughtfully designed single-floor amenity space masterfully combines industrial heritage with contemporary style. Warm hardwood floors in a herringbone pattern run throughout, complemented by exposed brick walls and striking slatted wood ceiling details that add depth and warmth to every zone. The lounge area serves as a dramatic focal point, anchored by an ornate wood-mantled fireplace with teal tile detailing. Clustered mercury glass globe pendant lights illuminate plush blue armchairs and a leather sofa, creating an inviting and sophisticated gathering space. Generous large-paned windows line the perimeter, flooding the interior with natural light and offering views of the surrounding neighborhood. An open game room features a full-size pool table beneath bold slatted pendant fixtures, alongside a sleek marble-topped bar station equipped for entertaining. The dining area accommodates a large group around a dark wood table with industrial metal chairs, all beneath eye-catching wire-frame geometric chandeliers. Glass-paneled partitions define flexible zones while maintaining an open, airy feel across the expansive floor plate. The overall ambiance is a refined balance of historic character and modern amenity, making this a highly functional and visually compelling communal space.

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.
