About Newbury Street

Newbury Street runs roughly east to west through Boston's Back Bay, from the Boston Public Garden to Brookline Avenue. East of Massachusetts Avenue it is a mile-long street of historic 19th-century brownstones holding hundreds of shops and restaurants, which makes it popular with visitors and locals alike. Most of the high-end boutiques sit near the Public Garden end; as the house numbers climb, the shops become a little cheaper and more bohemian up to Massachusetts Avenue.
