Boston

What is your favorite place to go in your city?

Daily writing prompt

Boston, Massachusetts. My city. For my entire life it’s been this shining beacon of awesome sitting 20-30 miles to the South. I don’t have a favorite place in the city. I have a hundred favorite places in the city, maybe more. Here are a few of them, my personal highlights if you will.

  • Fenway Park
  • TD Garden
  • Newbury Street
  • Boylston Street
  • Commonwealth Avenue
  • Beacon Street
  • Massachusetts Avenue
  • Haymarket Square
  • Faneuil Hall/Quincy Market
  • Everything on the Freedom Trail
    • City Hall
    • Granary Burial Ground
    • Old North Church
    • Old South Meeting House
    • Paul Revere’s House, even though it’s a tough spot to visit if you’re really tall
    • The Old City Hall which currently houses a Ruth’s Chris’ Steak House
    • The Bunker Hill Monument
    • The USS Constitution
  • Rose Kennedy Greenway
  • Boston Common

  • Lansdowne Street
  • Kenmore Square
  • The North End

Okay… I am going to stop now. There are probably a couple of dozen more places that I love, but if I keep going I am going to spend hours writing this post and I’ll be late for work. Suffice to say that I love the holy hell out of the great city of Boston. There are other cities that I love, but Boston is mine. Boston is home.
