About

Greendale

Greendale, located between Indian Lake and Burncoat, is a residential and lakeside Worcester neighborhood with a hillside street grid and a pocket of local retail. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around West Boylston Street near the Greendale Mall site, where small plazas, takeout counters, and everyday services line the corridor. Triple-deckers and mid-century capes mix with newer apartment communities, giving blocks a practical, lived-in rhythm. Indian Lake’s shoreline paths and boat access set a water-oriented backdrop for walks and seasonal views. The Ecotarium adds a hands-on cultural anchor with trails and exhibits. Green Hill Park’s broad lawns and zoo sit close by for open-air breaks.
