Apartments for Rent in West Quincy - Quincy

The Blue Hills Reservation takes up much of West Quincy. This 6,000-acre state park is one of the Boston area’s largest parcels of undeveloped land, culminating in its highest point, Great Blue Hill. Enjoy panoramic views from this vantage point and visit the historic Blue Hill Meteorological Observatory, founded by meteorologist and MIT grad, Abbott Lawrence Rotch in 1885. It is still active and is open to the public on weekends.

The north end of West Quincy is a wooded, attractive neighborhood with ample sidewalks that residents use for evening strolls or walking their dogs. The neighborhood provides ample mass transit and the Quincy Center subway station is only a mile or so to the east, making commuting throughout the Boston area a breeze.

While West Quincy is largely residential, you’ll find several shops and restaurants along Willard Street, as well as a few local favorites along Adams Street. Be sure to visit Brick & Beam, a rustic tavern, and Dairy Freeze for ice cream. Montilios Adams Street is a popular bakery and deli complete with outdoor seating.
