Driving Downtown Streets - Boylston Street - Boston Massachusetts USA - Episode 2.
Starting Point: Boylston Street - https://goo.gl/maps/gEK6dTJvpEq .
Boylston Street is the name of a major east-west thoroughfare in the city of Boston, Massachusetts. The Boston street was known as Frog Lane in the early 18th century and was later known as Common Street. It was later again renamed for Ward Nicholas Boylston (1747–1828),[1][2][3][4] a man of wealth and refinement, an officer of the Crown, and philanthropist. Boylston, who was a descendent of Zabdiel Boylston,[5] was born in Boston and spent much of his life in it. The Boylston Market was named after him as was the town of Boylston, Massachusetts.[3]
Boylston Street, Boston
From west to east, Boston's Boylston Street begins at the intersection of Park Drive and Brookline Avenue as a two-way, six-lane road in Boston's Fenway neighborhood where it runs through three blocks of recently developed and currently under construction (as of 2015) high-rise, mixed-use buildings one block south of Fenway Park before forming the northern boundary of the Back Bay Fens at the Storrow Drive/Commonwealth Avenue right-of-way. Traffic traveling west on Boylston here cannot continue on Boylston Street, and must use Ipswich Street to continue west. Then, Boylston Street enters the Back Bay neighborhood where it becomes a major commercial artery carrying three lanes of one way traffic eastbound after Dalton Street. As it travels through the Back Bay, it forms the northern boundary of busy Copley Square and provides the southern limits to the Boston Public Garden before becoming a two-way street running along Boston Common's southern edge from Charles Street to Tremont Street. After Tremont Street, Boylston returns to carrying one way traffic east before ending at Washington Street in the downtown area where it changes to Essex Street.
Boston (pronounced Listeni/ˈbɒstən/ boss-tin) is the capital and largest city[8] of the Commonwealth of Massachusetts in the United States. Boston also served as the county seat of Suffolk County until Massachusetts disbanded county government in 1999. The city proper covers 48 square miles (124 km2) with an estimated population of 667,137 in 2015,[9] making it the largest city in New England and the 24th largest city in the United States.[2] The city is the economic and cultural anchor of a substantially larger metropolitan area called Greater Boston, home to 4.7 million people and the tenth-largest metropolitan statistical area in the country.[5] Greater Boston as a commuting region is home to 8.1 million people, making it the sixth-largest combined statistical area in the United States.[10]
The area's many colleges and universities make Boston an international center of higher education,[18] including law, medicine, engineering, and business, and the city is considered to be a world leader in innovation and entrepreneurship.[19][20] Boston's economic base also includes finance,[21] professional and business services, biotechnology, information technology, and government activities.[22] Households in the city claim the highest average rate of philanthropy in the United States;[23] businesses and institutions rank among the top in the country for environmental sustainability and investment.[24] The city has one of the highest costs of living in the United States,[25] though it remains high on world livability rankings.
