Hello, friends, travelers, and community Greetings! Hope you all are doing well and having a good time with your loved ones.
After taking a small lunch break, we started our walk around Quincy Market. I was surprised to see how crowded the people buying food. different American food, special Boston dishes, mostly meat and fish, and the chaos for purchasing food, but still For me, very difficult to choose any.
We chose some veg sandwiches and made further moves.
Quincy Market building in autumn weather. It has a central copper dome, which is not very clear because of clouds and low sun. It's constructed with granite pillars. It was very nice looking in the bright lights when I was visiting previously.
Faneuil Hall, built in 1742 and known as the "Cradle of Liberty," is a historic market and meeting hall in Boston. It has hosted major events, including pre-Revolutionary debates, abolitionist rallies, and women's suffrage meetings. Today, it is part of a bustling marketplace with shops, eateries, and a vibrant, tourist-friendly atmosphere. The street performances here tend draw a good crowd.
The Customs House is now occupied by the Marriott Vacation Club. It's a historic landmark featuring a neoclassical base built in 1849 with a tower added on in the 1930s. The tower was the first skyscraper in Boston, but now operates as a vacation resort with an observation deck on the 26th level offering 360-degree views.
This bronze statue represents Samuel Adams at Faneuil Hall, a founding father of the United States and a significant figure in the American Revolution, especially during the Boston Tea Party.
Established in 1826, it is recognized as the oldest continuously operating restaurant in the United States.
Being from India, the name of this apartment building caught my attention, but these days, there is no visible significance to the name. It appears to be just a normal apartment building. But back in the 1800s and the days of tall ships, especially the clipper ships, this area by India Wharf was specially designed to be the bustling center for trade with India and Asia
Boston Public Market.
Seems like a very nice place, very popular for all locals as well as tourists. People were relaxing in Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park on swings and on some benches. Enjoying the November sun.
Beside the children's museum stands the dairy shop formed as a bottle of Hood milk. While the building is a great local example of novelty architecture, the Hood trade name is very popular in dairy products, especially in Massachusetts and New Hampshire. I noticed it in all supermarkets.
Opposite the street, Washington Street, the bottle is reflecting in those glass buildings.
a serene view of the Fort Point Channel, Moakley Bridge, the main bridge structure in downtown.
I had an excellent guide, my husband, who grew up in this city and showed me all the places in order.
In my next post, I will explore the waterfront. For now, thank you very much.
