Located a block from the MBTA Redline and Commuter Rail on Massachusetts Ave in Porter Square, University Hall is a social hub for Lesley University students, faculty, staff, and the larger Cambridge community. For decades, University Hall has been home to a vibrant mix of local retailers and is best known for the cluster of Japanese food stalls located within the core of the building.

Today, Lesley University is embarking upon a significant renovation of the building, which will shift the retail and restaurant energy from the interior of the building to the far more visible Mass Ave edge.

1815 Massachusetts Ave Listing Brief

  • You should keep in mind that different areas gradually build a reputation as hotspots or desirable corridors for shopping, eating, or other entertainment and consumer activities. So, while renting retail space in an area with a well-established high-end reputation might mean more customers that are more willing to spend, it will also place you in a more competitive environment.

    Knowing your ideal customer is essential. For your consideration, the average age of residents in Agassiz is 32. The average household income here is $128,056 per year.
