Highrises with a view of the harbor
It wasn’t long ago that Marina Bay was just a marshland with the remains of a shipbuilding operation and an air base. However, since its multi-decade construction project in 1985, it has grown into an exclusive residential zone that caters to a youthful sense of luxury with upscale restaurants, boutique shopping, and boating facilities. Highrise condos line the shore of Squantum Channel, offering views of the ocean waters of Boston Harbor. All this and an 8-mile commute into Boston make Marina Bay a popular choice for young, professional homebuyers who want to keep their day job separate from their nightlife.

Boating and bird-watching on Squantum Bay
The largest draw to the Marina Bay neighborhood is the bay itself. Lined with private boating docks and piers, taking to the sea for fishing, sightseeing or regular transportation is a way of life among residents. For nature lovers, Squantum Point Park is a pet-friendly waterfront area with opportunities for bird-watching, picnicking, and enjoying a panoramic view of the Boston skyline. Though far from the overgrown thickets of switchgrass that dominated the landscape in its past, the peninsula still retains a large amount of its natural foliage, leaving lots of verdant scenery for locals to enjoy.

Modern condo living with a view of the Boston skyline
The homes in Marina Bay tend toward the sleek, professional living of condominiums and modern townhouses as opposed to the small-town New England charm that surrounding Quincy has a reputation for. “When they first developed the area, it was high-end. People like the views, like the neighbors and like the water,” says Chris Yang, Realtor with Keller Williams Boston Southwest. “It’s been kept really well.” Condos further inland start in the mid-$500,000s while those closer to the coast peak at $1.2 million. Colonial townhouses begin in the low-$400,000s, while an Essex-style detached home can go as high as $1.3 million.

Groceries, baked goods and other necessities can be picked up at Marina Bay Market. “There are some really well-to-do businesses in Marina Bay,” says William Harris, City Councillor of Quincy’s Sixth Ward. “The stores, the restaurants. I love going there when my wife and I eat out.”
