The Pioneer

My wife and I moved in a few weeks ago. We signed sight unseen. And we were delighted that everything (except the surrounding blocks) exceeded our expectations. The common areas are amazing. Parking is a breeze. The cafe Common Grounds serves up quality. It’s easy to reserve the library and golf simulator. And the gym (amazing Matrix equipment and great free weights) is never crowded. And just 8 minutes from sunrise at Revere Beach (see today’s sunrise pic). We’ve had a variety of friends and family visit us recently. They are amazed by this place. Update: we just renewed our lease. We searched around but nothing comes close.

We moved here this month and honestly we couldn’t be more happy! The pioneer already feels like home <3 all the girls Who works at the office has been super helpful and they’re always ready to help with anything!!! We couldn’t have picked a better place to live :)

I have been living at the Pioneer for 4 months and I must say that it is a great community to be a part of. It has all the amenities that one could think of, including a dog spa (that’s so cool). The maintenance team is very responsive as well and the tenants are treated very well.

The Pioneer offers an exceptional living experience that stands out among other residential buildings in the Boston area. The location is unbeatable—centrally situated with quick access to the highway, making it convenient to commute into Boston or explore surrounding areas. The building is thoughtfully designed and filled with outstanding amenities. The pool, golf simulator, movie theater, and work/study spaces are all of excellent quality. Paid covered parking is available for those who need it, along with convenient Amazon package lockers and dry-cleaning lockers. The rooftop is another highlight, perfect for barbecues and socializing during the summer months. The gym and dog park are especially remarkable, unmatched by other apartment buildings. The gym features state-of-the-art equipment, and the dog park is spacious and well-maintained, reflecting the care and attention to detail in the building’s upkeep. The apartments themselves are spacious, comfortable, and warm during the winter months. The office staff, including the assistant manager and maintenance team, are highly responsive and ensure residents feel supported. The cleaning staff consistently keep the building spotless, even with the high number of pets in the community. The landscaping is also beautifully maintained by a company called Outdoor Associates, with stunning seasonal flowers and thorough snow removal during storms. With all the pets, they did a good job! A fantastic coffee shop on the ground floor adds the perfect touch, offering a convenient and inviting space for residents. The Pioneer is an ideal home for young professionals seeking a vibrant, well-managed community with all the amenities needed for a comfortable and active lifestyle. Highly recommended for anyone considering a new place to live!

We’ve been living here for about a year and have had a very positive experience. The management team is always helpful, and the amenities are impressive. There are, consistently, multiple events held each month, which doesn’t seem like a given in most buildings. I would definitely recommend The Pioneer to anyone looking in the area. (Also extremely dog friendly!)

Excellent experience at The Pioneer! The common areas—pool, gym, and study spaces—are always clean, well-maintained, and inviting. The staff is consistently helpful and welcoming. I also love the natural light in the apartments, and the close proximity to shops and public transport makes daily life so convenient. Highly recommend!

We moved into the pioneer in December 2024. Our experience has been incredible! The apartment building is very clean and they do a great job responding to any resident concerns that come up. The pool and the gym are incredible! Great place to live and highly recommend.

We’ve been living at the Pioneer for almost a year and we can’t say enough good things about it! The building has every amenity you could need and more, and we love how pet friendly it is. The leasing staff is so friendly, and the events every month are always something to look forward to! When we were apartment searching last year, we knew immediately that the Pioneer was for us!

It's a great place to stay, especially with a family member who resides in the same complex. The place was very clean, had all the necessary amenities (minus shampoo), and was quiet. Thank you!

Truly 5-star experience! Lived here for 5 months. Excellent location. Very well connected via public transit to Boston city : Buses, Silver line, commuter rail are all within walking distance. The apartment complex is great! Leasing, management, security and maintenance crew are all very polite and professional. Great amenities: Gym, yoga room, Lounge, golf simulator, pool, grills, roof-top. The gym is phenomenal. Best apartment gym I've ever seen! Rooftop has a lovely view of the Boston Skyline! The apartment complex has nice social events such as Comedy nights. Unfortunately, I had to move to a different state. They have a very reasonable lease-break policy. Both move-in and move-out processes were very smooth. Special thanks to Abbey and Renee for their help. A few minor cons one should be aware of (still not enough to drop a star): - Noise: There is a restaurant depot nearby and trucks keep entering it from 7am. This causes some noise if you live on that side. The property is right by Revere beach parkway, so there will some road noise. - Pets: There are a lot of pet owners here and some of them don't believe in keeping their pets on leashes inside elevators or cleaning up. However, the maintenance crew does work hard to keep the premises neat and clean. Without doubt the best apartment complex I've lived in!

At the pioneer tonight for comedy show with Brock of four corners comedy show had an awesome time. This place is amazing. They'll be back in November can't wait to return.

I have lived at the pioneer for about 9 months at this point and loved every minute of it. Great bang for your buck with the orange and silver line very close by it's easy to commute to the city, but also a great location with multiple shopping centers within a mile. Outside of the location the staff are incredibly kind and responsive. They also regularly schedule great events for the residents. Last but not least the amenities are amazing and make it as if you never need to leave. Again great bang for your bucks and an even better community. I would without question recommend The Pioneer to any family or friend

They should call this place the Peeoneer or the Pissineer. Everyday without fail you will walk into the elevator to either find pee or throw up. Dog pee is everywhere in this place. It's actually horrible. Even stairs will have dog urine. Leasing has never once ever asked the residents to clean up after their dogs or have them stop pissing in the stairwells which are carpeted. I have a dog myself and I would never leave my pups urine and not clean it up. I wish I started taking pics as soon as I moved in this is just photos from the past 2 weeks. Me and other residents are amazed management hasn't dealt with this.

Loved the building itself but management was slacking towards the end of our stay. We emailed them about our move out date and they never responded to us and then proceeded to charge us almost 7k for each month as we both didn't sign the lease which again was on them for not following through. 7k a month is seaport prices not Everett. That's absolutely outrageous. They were not transparent about how much the month to month rate was going to cost and it was outlined in our renewal it was 4k.

I really like it here. On site parking is convenient. Ive got a great view of the city. The amenities are awesome, specifically the gym. The building also hosts various functions throughout the month, although a lot are pet centered. My only big complaints after 3 months are that the mail room is fairly messy although they do try to tidy it up. Also, my neighbor is incredibly noisy sometimes. But thats apartment living for ya.

If you dont mind flipping the breaker on every morning because you have the a.c. on over night then this place is for you.... I don't believe the electricians did a very good job. Under construction our whole lease and couldn't even use the main parking garage entrance/exit for the majority of our stay. Also if you like to pay for amenities that you cant use do to covid-19 then this place is perfect. It is a beautiful building I will give it that, but still has some major issues

This is a beautiful apartment complex!! The pool and roof deck are my favorite spots. The staff is super friendly and helpful too!

The Pioneer has been great, the amenities, location and community really make it very easy to navigate the surroundings.

This is probably my favorite building in the Boston area based on the amenities, location, and above all attention to detail by management and the ownership group.

I have lived here for the last 6 months with my significant other and pup and we absolutely love it. The building was still in the works when we first moved in and things have improved so much each week. We truly love living here and feel as though the management team is always there to help in whatever way they can. The amenities are also amazing and our pup loves playing at the dog park with the many pioneer furry friends. Highly recommend!!

PAPER THIN WALLS AND ROOF. From units 602-612, you can hear every conversation and feel every footstep as well as hear the sliding of the shuffleboard rattling across the roof. Unsure how it's even structurally legal to have such a thin layer between the 6th floor ceiling and the roof deck. People let their children and dogs sprint across the roof, which against policy, but the selfish tenants ignore it. The security is equally bad at administering the 10pm cut off for roof, as people often are up there until 4am stomping around. What's more there has been a large uptick of animal pee in the halls and elevators without any effort by the owners to clean it up.
