177 Huntington

177 Huntington is a 26-story office building on Huntington Avenue featuring Brutalist architecture with glass and concrete elements. The structure rises approximately 355 feet (108 meters) and includes ground-floor retail spaces for commercial use.

The building was constructed between 1968 and 1972 as headquarters for the Christian Science organization. In 2012 it transitioned to serve commercial office tenants and changed its primary function.

The building is part of the Christian Science Center complex, which shapes how the neighborhood functions and brings people together through shared public spaces. You can see how this location influences local activity and daily rhythms in the area.

The building is well-connected with direct access to nearby subway stations for easy transportation. Ground-floor retail spaces are readily accessible from the street, making the area easy to navigate.

Since 2017 peregrine falcons have nested on a high ledge of the building and successfully raise their young there each year. These high-rise nesting sites have become common for the species in urban areas.
