Before you head to the North End, it's a good idea to know the lay of the land. The North End is the oval-shaped piece of land jutting out from Boston proper bound by Route 93 and the Rose Kennedy Greenway. Christopher Columbus Waterfront Park — near the Boston Marriott Long Wharf— anchors this part of town to the south while Boston's Inner Harbor ...
As you exit the Haymarket subway stop, take an immediate right on Sudbury Street and then a right on Congress. You'll walk against traffic for one block. At the corner of Congress and Hanover Street, you'll find the New England Holocaust Memorial. It's not right at the gateway of the North End, but it would be a shame not to stop here before your t...
If you're beginning your tour at breakfast or lunchtime, grab a quick bite before launching into your tour.
As you brush those pastry or pizza crumbs from your shirt, take a slight detour off Hanover Street by hanging a right on Prince Street and then another right onto North Street, where you'll enter the North Square plaza. Bostonians will tell you that North Square is America's oldest public square, and it's been a meeting place since 1649.
Once you've investigated North Square, retrace your steps along Prince Street and take a right back onto Hanover Street, where you'll find St. Stephen's Catholic Church (401 Hanover Street). Even if you don't go inside, check out the exterior gardens and statues. It's a very peaceful spot.
You'll find the Paul Revere Mall and statue off Hanover Street between Tilestone and Charter streets. This is a good spot for photo-taking and resting a bit in the shade. There are plaques on the walls that hem in the mall. Each discusses important former North End residents and their achievements. The mall eventually leads to the Old North Church.
Every American schoolchild learns that Paul Revere launched his famous ride in 1775 from Old North Church (193 Salem Street). You can view the Christ Church, which was established in 1723, for free from the outside. If you want a tour inside, it will cost $5 per person (kids under 6 are free). As you walk from Old North Church to your next stop, yo...
Your next stop is Copps Hill Burying Ground, and you'll find the entrance across from what's known as the Skinny House (44 Hull Street). The aptly named four-story home is supposedly the narrowest building in Boston — 10.4 feet at its widest point. It was originally built by a Civil War veteran as a "spite house" after his brother spent all of thei...
Since the pandemic started, I've spent a fair amount of time working on my family's genealogy. And while it may seem strange to walk around a cemetery, there is something so meaningful about taking time to read the tombstones and think about what each person's life must have been like. Copps Hill Burying Ground is Boston's second cemetery and goes ...
