Boston is Beautiful -- North End/Beacon Hill
 

We had one hell of a May where we had this brilliant, almost LA-esque sunlight for what felt like a couple weeks straight, and these shots date towards the end of that month. I got out every day I could because I love this bright-but-not-harsh light and I wish we got more of it out here on the east coast.

So on this day I wanted to capture the new towers going up at North Station, and that meant wandering around the North End and then moving on over to the West End and Beacon Hill. Not much else to this story -- enjoy!

As always, cheers :cheers:

Such great scale and feel.

Outstanding photos that really capture Boston's charm.

In many respects, I prefer Boston to NY and SF. It's so gorgeous.:cheers::cheers:

P.S.: I loved the shot of Paul Revere's house.

Such a wonderful urban neighborhood!

Thank you for such sunny coverage!

Every time I see this building I cringe--when I was a teenager my orthodontist had his office there. Once a week, tighten the screws--ouch!

Great photos. I miss Boston.

excellent photos. One of my favorite cities in America. My company is based there and I was going there often till covid hit. As others said, the scale is perfect. I like it better than traveling to NYC. I rode those city bikes all over Boston and it's big, east coast rush, but yet subtle, charming and calm at the same time.
