About The Street

The heartbeat of Chestnut Hill

If first impressions matter, then consider this full-blown love at first sight. Inspired by some of the best retail streets in the world, The Street brings the inviting, walkable feel of a central shopping district to the idyllic neighborhood of Chestnut Hill.

Here, you’ll find generous green space, a tranquil pond dotted with swans and a collection of 40 beloved brands, including some of the most sought-after local shops and eateries, all just a stone’s throw from Boston city limits. It’s a destination brimming with town-center-like charm, art, community activities and everyday delights.
