This is the closest thing to 5th Ave in Boston, at least at the end that starts near the Boston Garden. Would be very cool to live in one of the many brownstones on this street, but they must be in the thousands for monthly rent.
Designer duds at the Park end and funky stuff at the Mass Ave end, including CondomNation, a couple of Nepal and Tibetan gift shops, art galleries, vintage clothing and used music stores.
