Walking Boston: 34 Tours Through Beantown's Cobblestone Streets, Historic Districts, Ivory Towers, and Bustling Waterfront
Walking Boston: 34 Tours Through Beantown's Cobblestone Streets, Historic Districts, Ivory Towers, and Bustling Waterfront | Robert Todd Felton
1 post
Get to Know Beantown's Historic Neighborhoods Boston is a walker's town. It's as clear as the brick red path marking the Freedom Trail, the bright blue signs of the Harborwalk, and the green of the Emerald Necklace series of parks. Boston's nearly 400-year history has led to the development of hidden neighborhoods, historic sites, and iconic parks that tempt both Bostonians and visitors out onto the sidewalks, paths, and trails lacing this close-knit city. In addition, the Big Dig project, which helped revive downtown and the waterfront by moving Interstate 93 underground, has created an energy and excitement that has driven projects like the Harborwalk and the Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway. Robert Todd Felton's Walking Boston offers the best of Boston's new and old rambles. This portable guide features detailed maps, original photos, and public transportation information for every trip. Route summaries make each walk easy to follow, and a Points of Interest section summarizes each walk's highlights.

We have recently moved to Boston (from San Diego). We are staying in corporate housing in the downtown/seaport district of Boston for a month till our place is ready. I took a walk this evening & found this cool book library. I resisted the urge to grab a book since I have realized with packing just how many books I physically have in the tbr pile.
