99 Problems and The Sudbury Walking Score Isn’t One

Boston is a special city with so much to offer, from its rich history and grand parks all the way to its great restaurants and skyscraper views. One thing in particular that makes The Sudbury so special is its booming walking score, a near perfect ranking of 99. With Boston voted as the 3rd most walkable large city in America, it’s no wonder you can find The Sudbury residents walking throughout the city to get where they’re going. 

In Bulfinch Crossing, the neighborhood where The Sudbury’s Downtown Boston apartments call home, Bostonians can get almost anywhere by foot. Whether you want to walk to work, go antiquing on Charles Street, or crave a cannoli from Hanover Street, by foot is by far the fastest, easiest way to get there.

Start your stopwatch; here are four great locations in Boston you can get to by foot from The Sudbury (without breaking a sweat!).
