The West End: 400 Years of Urban Development
The West End: 400 Years of Urban Development
EXHIBITION LECTURE | with The West End Museum’s archivist Bob Potenza
Throughout its history, Boston’s west side, later known as the West End, has seen its physical shape transformed, its purposes redefined, and its population abruptly replaced. No other neighborhood of Boston has benefited and suffered so much, and for so long, from the effects of urban development. Come join The West End Museum’s archivist Bob Potenza as he explores the neighborhood’s complicated history.
