Josephine A. Fiorentino Community Center

Serving as the ground-floor anchor of the Charlesview Residences at Antwerp Street and Western Avenue, the space opened as North Allston-Brighton’s first neighborhood community center of its kind. It was established in honor of Josephine A. Fiorentino, a longtime resident, founder, and Charlesview board president who championed local housing initiatives.

The facility pairs common gathering spaces with dedicated classrooms for children and adults and a Google-outfitted computer room, hosting an expanding roster of programs run in collaboration with local organizations.
