This week we continue our focus on Boston’s Back Bay with another ultra luxury development, The Clarendon. This neighborhood has seen a recent surge in residential construction as discussed in other articles featuring the Residences at the Mardarin Oriental, the Arlington, and the proposed One Dalton Street at Christian Science Plaza.
