Beacon hill 1

3 images from Beacon Hill:

Beacon Hill is a historic neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts. It is a neighborhood of Federal-style rowhouses and is known for its narrow, gaslit streets and brick sidewalks.

 The cobbled streets are very appealing to a tourist, but probably wildly impractical to the local residents.

Intersection of Charles Street and Mount Vernon Street. Gary Drug co. and 7-11 are still there after taking a quick look at Google Maps. 🙂 B&W conversion in Lightroom.

Continuing my occasional series of digitising my negatives from my time studying and working in Boston in 1998. I was using a Pentax film camera and Kodak Gold 400 film.

  1. I was in Porto (Portugal) in four or five years ago, and saw some of the very narrow streets in Europe, was a pleasant town, but at night, these narrow streets looks kind of scary to me.

  2. In Italy we have many street like these and I love them! Never thought could find The same in America…very charming with a touch of Europen taste. Thanks for sharing😍😍

    • Thank you very much Sheri. I’m honoured that you would nominate me.

      I really appreciate this, but as I have told others, please understand that I prefer not to accept awards at this time.
