Walgreens (Boston, Massachusetts)

Former branch of the Five Cents Savings Bank which was designed c. 1972 by Kallman, McKinnell & Knowles. In 2013, Walgreens became the newest tenant of this iconic building. Taking advantage of the opportunity to occupy a dramatic space in a prominent location, Walgreens chose to restore the original fabric of both the 1972 addition and the 1925 bank building and highlight the features of the modern, innovative design.

More than 20,000 square feet of area this 24 hour Walgreens offers more services than its traditional drugstore layout, including a sushi bar, coffee shop, frozen yogurt station and manicure section and beer and wine. Borders Bookstore was located in this spot at one time.
