Commonwealth Avenue: Boston's grand boulevard
Take a walk through the heart of Victorian Boston on this tour of Commonwealth Avenue!
Boston's grand boulevard, Commonwealth Avenue, provides an enduringly popular stroll. The tour parallels the 19th-century filling and development of the Back Bay from its origin at Arlington Street down the seven blocks along the tree-lined, grassy Mall. See how careful effort over 150 years has preserved the "grandness" of the Avenue.
