Description
The Fenway neighborhood came to be in the 1870s. In the latter half of the 1800s tidal swamps and mud flats were a sanitary concern for all of Boston, so a park system was created for the city, now known as the Emerald Necklace. Now, the Fens (as it was called then) is known as Fenway park, where in nice weather you will find joggers, tons of people walking, and geese swimming leisurely in the Muddy River. Fenway park came to the neighborhood in 1912, and has since been the home of the Red Sox, and five of their World Series wins. More recently, the Fenway area has seen an increase in residential units being used for both on-campus and off-campus housing for nearby universities, and has maintained a large residential population in East Fenway for quite some time.
With wide, polished streets reminiscent of Paris at the time of Haussmann’s renovation- the Back Bay is most famous for its boutiques and sidewalk cafes. Designer shops line the end of Newbury closest to the Boston Gardens, and throughout the neighbourhood there are large trees lining the streets. Open Newbury St is a popular event here, where Newbury St becomes a pedestrian only way and several booths line the streets. It is bordered by the Charles River on its Northern side, where rowers can often be found- so yes, the Back Bay has something for everyone’s interests! It is easily accessible via Orange and Green MBTA lines, as well as several bus routes
