Apartment Description
Located in the heart of the South End and adjacent to the Boston University Medical Center, James and Harrison Court offers residents modern living in two charming, historically rich buildings. Nestled behind an elegant brick façade, residents will... discover newly renovated apartment homes that exceed expectations. Take comfort in knowing your Heat, Water, Sewer & Trash are included free of charge. Upon entering, residents are met with expansive floor plans, lofty ceilings, stainless steel appliances, wide-plank flooring, and easy-to-maintain quartz countertops. Not to mention, floor-to-ceiling windows in most homes, gives way to a light, airy feeling that will make it hard to leave. Impressive on-site amenities include: a private, beautifully landscaped courtyard, fully-equipped fitness center, 24-hour concierge services, private conference space and a pet grooming room to name just a few.
I have lived at Harrison Court for many years and it has been a consistently comfortable and reliable place to call home. The building is clean, well maintained, and any maintenance issues I have had were addressed quickly by responsive staff.
The location in the South End is a major strength, with easy access to public transportation, nearby hospitals, and neighborhood amenities. Having Zipcar and other conveniences close by makes day-to-day life easier as well. Overall, it has been a great experience living in a safe, walkable, and genuinely nice South End community.

Great area, especially for medical professionals. Safe and secure. Snow is always taken care of and shoveled and packages are sorted and safe.

James Court is going downhill. They keep jacking up rents faster than anyone's income is growing. It doesn't matter how long you've lived here or how good a tenant you are. I've lived here almost a decade, just got my lease renewal, and the rent is almost 38% more than what I was paying just four years ago...almost $1000/month more! There are very visible signs at every entrance to our courtyard stating no dogs are allowed, yet there are dogs pooping on the lawn on a regular basis and no one can be bothered to enforce the rule. The coffee machine in the lobby was recently out of service for over a month. I was told last year that a new printer would be installed in James Court so residents can print documents outside office hours (since the business center inside in the leasing office has been locked after hours for 3 years now)...still no printer! There has been a lot of turnover in the leasing office but they can't be bothered to communicate so we know who is running this place.

James Court is generally a quiet, comfortable place to live. However, community rules need to be better enforced. There is a relatively small number of residents who don't pay attention to signage around the community or the rules laid out in their leases, or even commonsense etiquette in hallways and laundry rooms.

Great facility with great amenities and maintenance. Little bit of a noisy area because of the hospital, but great access to the medical facilities and close enough to Back bay.
