Welcome to Cathedral
1472 Washington Street, South End |
Located in the heart of the up and coming South End neighborhood, the Cathedral development offers modern apartments in a variety of configurations for low- and moderate-income individuals and families. The complex is named after the Catholic Cathedral of the Holy Cross, located across the street, and was built in 1950. Once renovations are complete, Cathedral will offer 421 one to four bedroom apartments in walk-up and elevator buildings as well as some townhouse units. Currently approximately 250 apartments are available for rent; the remainder are in various stages of renovation. Rents are calculated at 30% of a resident’s income.
