Fenway Studios, Ipswich Street, Boston

This building was completed in 1904 following a disastrous fire of a similar art studio complex. Many of the artists at the former studio building relocated here, and, thankfully, the building still serves its primary purpose, to offer a northward-facing building with tall ceilings and large windows for the art community. The building itself is a rare example - in Boston - of the Arts and Crafts architectural movement (the sun was too blinding to take any good photos of the facade of the building, which is a work of art - particularly with regard to the brickwork - in itself).
