Back Bay is an officially recognized neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It is most famous for its rows of Victorian brownstone homes — considered one of the best preserved examples of 19th-century urban design in the United States — as well as numerous architecturally significant individual buildings, and cultural institutions such as the Boston Public Library. It is also a fashionable shopping destination (especially Newbury and Boylston Streets, and the adjacent Prudential Center and Copley Place malls) and home to some of Boston's tallest office buildings, the Hynes Convention Center, and numerous major hotels.
Warby Parker is makes vintage-inspired prescription eyeglasses. They design their glasses in-house and sells directly to customers to avoid retail markup. We love that they partner with non-profits like VisionSpring who ensure that for every pair of glasses sold, a pair is distributed to someone in need. Great cause and a great company structure to support.
