No Access Boston: Beantown's Hidden Treasures, Haunts, and Forgotten Places

Meer over het boek

No Access Boston invites both the visitor and local to leave the beaten track, roam about, and explore a selection of the city's surprising, unusual, hidden, and little-known places that people rarely see, don't know how to see, or haven't seen yet! Journey to the Japanese garden behind the Museum of Fine Arts or the observation deck of the Custom House Tower. Take a behind-the-scenes tour of the crypt and belfry at Old North Church or take a closer look at the urban landscape-like the Fenway Victory Gardens or the bronze Salada Tea Doors in the Back Bay. Find your way to the Franklin Park Zoo's abandoned bear cages or Brook Farm, the forsaken home of Boston's nineteenth-century transcendentalist community. No Access Boston is a tribute to the city that is not always shown on a postcard but that is amazing all the same. What a fun way to explore Boston! Book jacket.
