Description
Colorized photo from 1915
Original title: Boylston Street
Photographer: Detroit publishing
Location: 215 Boylston St
Boylston street is where the Boston Marathon has its finish line. It used to be called Frogg Lane back in the 1700s.
I found a few postcards of this spot, but wasn't pleased with the colors they chose. So I chose my own, along with the fact a few building still exist. I wanted something showy but not fun house like.
Currently the only things in here that still exist is that fence on the right, maybe this red path, and Arlington Street Church at the end of the block. And I'm not a 100% certain, but I think that spire on the right ed might be the Church of the Covenant. It's hard to tell because perspective does weird things and there are more buildings today covering it up.
Those buildings are interesting. They almost remind me of modern lofts.
