Residents of 285 Columbus Lofts, as well as those near the new Back Bay / South End condo development, were anticipating the arrival of a high-end restaurant in the ground floor commercial space at 285 Columbus Avenue, but were surprised to see a significant course correction earlier this year when it was announced that a CVS would occupy the space (see CVS Replaces Restaurant at 285 Columbus Lofts).
The CVS at the northwest corner of Columbus Avenue and Clarendon Street has opened its doors to both its upstairs neighbors and surrounding residents. Store hours for the new 285 Columbus Avenue CVS are 7:00 AM – 10:00 PM, while the Pharmacy is open Monday to Friday 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM, and Saturday to Sunday 8:00 AM to 8:00 PM.
