Boston Architecture and Landmarks introduces you to the built environment of Boston and Cambridge with buildings and landmarks from colonial times to the present day. This book supports visitors new to Boston, with a broad perspective and basic orientation. Those who know Boston well will gain both depth of historical context and detailed focus on the richness of Boston's architectural heritage. The book begins with an introduction to Boston's history from its founding to the present. The historical narrative will frame your understanding of Boston's urban development. Over 140 sites are included, each with a photograph and a short description, cross-referenced to city section maps. The sites - buildings, parks and other significant landmarks - are presented in chronological order to give you a proper sense of Boston's development from a small town to a major city. This organizational arrangement allows you to concentrate on the time period of interest to you when exploring the city. You may also explore a city neighborhood by looking up a city section map where you will find sites of special interest in that area. All sites on the maps are cross-referenced to the site description pages. Using Boston Architecture and Landmarks, you will come to know Boston's past and present.
