St. Leonard of Port Maurice PariSh
Taking the Mystery Out of Boston History
and Charles Dickens to hear him preach. In 1884, a group of Italian immigrants purchased the building, and in 1888 it was named Sacred Heart.
On Hanover Street, St. Stephen’s is the last remain-ing church in Boston that was designed by celebrated architect Charles Bulfinch, who also designed the Massachusetts State House. Completed in 1804, the building also features a bell cast by Paul Revere—yes, that Paul Revere, who worked as a silversmith when he wasn’t alerting Colonial militia about the approach of Redcoats. The church switched from Unitarian to Catholic in 1862, when the Archdiocese of Boston acquired it and renamed it St. Stephen’s. It’s now the headquarters of the Society of St. James the Apostle.
Today, Bostonians continue to worship under the same vaulted ceilings and ornate frescos as genera-tions before them, while visitors are rewarded with an invaluable peek at the past. Stop by to take in a service or just enjoy a quiet moment while you light a prayer candle. —Erica Jackson Curran
The Old North Church may hold the title of Bos-ton’s most visited historical site, yet just around
the corner you’ll find several more churches that are worth a detour. Anchored by St. Leonard’s, the oldest Italian church in New England, the St. Leonard of Port Maurice Parish includes three houses of worship that provided solace for the waves of immigrants that settled in the North End in the 19th and 20th centuries.
Founded in 1873, St. Leonard’s is a Catholic church built to minister to the growing population of Italian immigrants in Boston. Its basement opened for public worship in 1891, drawing close to 20,000 parishioners. The upper part of the church was completed in 1899.
Up the street on North Square lies a plot of land that saw two churches burn to the ground before its present-day incarnation was built in 1833. It served as a Seamen’s Bethel for nearly 40 years, with the Rev. Edward T. Taylor drawing the likes of Herman Melville

beacon hillAn old-world feeling awaits you in this quaint part of the city
Strolling along Beacon Hill’s picturesque gas-lit streets, brick sidewalks and Federal-style row houses, it’s not un-common to feel as though you’ve travelled back in time.
Both eminently posh and utterly accommodating, this area has borne witness to much of the city’s storied past. The State House—with its gleaming gold dome—sits on the peak of the hill where the beacon for which the district was named used to reside. In this neighborhood, visitors can also find the African Meeting House, which holds the Museum of African-American History, as well as the Bull and Finch Pub, the inspiration for the popular TV show, “Cheers.” Charles Street, located at the flat of the hill, is lined with boutiques, restaurants, cafes and charm-ing hotels. Locals descend the hill daily to enjoy all that Charles Street has to offer, adding to the feeling of small-town charm.

Back BayThis famous neighborhood is truly the hub of the Hub
Exquisite architecture and world-class retailers are plen-tiful in Boston’s most well-known neighborhood. The Victorian brick and brownstone residences that line the

Newbury and Boylston streets, where luxury shops vie for space amidst outstanding restaurants, welcome visitors and residents alike. Back Bay is also home to the iconic Prudential Tower, Trinity Church, Boston Public Library, the John Hancock Tower and two sprawling shopping malls con-nected by a climate-controlled bridge. You’ll also find standout salons, spas, antique shops and galleries throughout. Nightlife thrives in Back Bay as well, where chic hotel bars, world-class restaurants and swanky lounges abound.

NORTH ENDFabulous cuisine, shopping and history are abundant in Boston’s Little Italy
Old North Church
Italian culture reigns in the North End, Boston’s oldest and busi-est neighborhood. The sweet scent of fresh cannoli rises from countless Italian bakeries that populate this district’s narrow
cobblestone streets, while the veritable buffet of dining choices will have you wishing there were more than three meals to en-joy in a day. Recently, clothing and home decor boutiques have been setting up shop here, making the North End an even more diverse and desirable destination. Don’t even try to find a park-ing space—it’s best to hop on the T or walk. If you happen to be strolling The Freedom Trail, you’ll discover three of the North End’s most important historical sites: The Paul Revere House, Copp’s Hill Burying Ground and the Old North Church. Summer-time brings people into the streets to celebrate various Italian feasts with music, socializing and, of course, sensational food.

Boston accent
Pat Moscaritolo has a list of places he can’t wait to visit during Restau-rant Week Boston, though as president of the Greater Boston Convention and Visitors Bu-reau, he won’t reveal where he’ll be going. That would be playing favorites, and as ambassador of Boston’s biannual celebration of the culinary community, he strives to remain unbiased. However, you can bet he’ll be dining out with the rest of the city August 18–23 and 25–30. Moscaritolo will be the first to admit that Boston wasn’t always known for its food. “As I say somewhat jokingly but with significant validity, we’ve come a long way from when you thought of the Boston dining scene as lobster sandwiches and clam chowder. And forget about baked beans, which always drove me crazy,” he says. “Now we have chefs known across the region and around the globe. We certainly are one of the top culinary destina-tions in the U.S.” The GBCVB launched the first Restaurant Week in 2001. Scheduled during a notoriously slow time in the restaurant world, the event was intended to draw diners out of their late-summer stupor. Just 35 restaurants signed up
for the five-day event. Today it spans two weeks in August and two weeks in March, with about 190 local restaurants offering discounted prices on multi-course meals for lunch and dinner. “Our bottom line is: It’s a winner for the dining public, a winner for the staff and employees, the restaurant suppliers, and the restaurants’ owners and chefs,” Moscaritolo says. This year’s charitable partner, Commu-nity Work Services, is also a winner: Moscari-tolo projects the promotion will raise between
$15,000 and $20,000 for the organization. Most importantly, perhaps, the popular event helps the GBCVB brand the Greater Boston Area as a foodie destination. “It’s a way of validating this concept that dining is now a very key part of Boston,” Moscaritolo says. “When people think of Boston, they think of cultural institutions and historical attractions. They’ve always been the underpinnings of our brand, but it’s grown and flourished to include the culinary scene.” —Erica Jackson Curran
