Where Would You Find This Dormer? Let's Play Attention to Detail

Let's play Attention to Detail! We give you a close-up clue, like the dormer with lots of windows above, and you have to figure out where you've seen it around Boston.

Here are some hints:

• This building was once a florist shop.
• Today the property has a mixture of commercial and residential units.
• All those windows in the dormer should provide a view of a lot of greenery in summer.
• This is in the Beacon Hill neighborhood.

The dormer is on 31-33 Charles Street at the corner of Chestnut Street.

Above is a photo from the Boston City archives of this property on October 31, 1965, when it was home to Guild Flowers.
