Between 1800 and 1850, dirt was piled in on either side of Washington Street, and Boston's first planned community was born. A typical residential street is Concord Square -- it's not a square at all, but an oval park with a fountain in the middle. Like its counterparts Union Park, Worcester Square, Chester Park, and Rutland Square, the design was inspired by English cities like Bath. Developers built the single-family homes as fast as they could to lure the affluent from Beacon Hill. The result was a cozy and dense character.

Graffiti is a place for quick notes. Know the hours of a business but not sure where to put it? Did something just happen at this place? Leave some graffiti.
Sometimes street view does not point exactly to the right place. You may need to "drive around" a bit.
