Yesterday I toured the Gibson House. It was one of the first houses built in the Back Bay, around 1860. The Back Bay was a marshy bog until it was filled in. It took around 40 years, but now some of the most expensive homes in Boston are there. The house is on Beacon Street, as are these other buildings. Commonwealth Avenue is parallel, two blocks over.
I grew up in San Diego, and aside from a three-year stint working on cruise ships, had lived in Southern California my whole life. I moved from San Diego to Boston in June 2008. It's been wonderful. Here are the stories.
