Boston Common & Public Gardens

Attraction

Dating back to 1634, the Boston Common is a center of public life. The more formal Public Gardens were created when adjacent marshland was filled in to become Back Bay in the 1830's, and they were designed by Frederick Law Olmsted.

When they were younger, Lauren and Kristin were especially fond of taking swan boat rides, which have run by the same family since 1877. (And as a side note, Lauren went to college with the grandson of the current proprietors!)
