History in Boston wall murals

"Beantown" was founded in 1603 by the Puritans who were traveling from England. It quickly became one of the most economically progressive cities in the New England area. However, the Stamp Act of 1765 required colonists to pay a tax to the British Empire on every single piece of paper that was printed. This caused enormous unrest among the colonists in Boston, who began to riot dumping British tea into the Boston Harbor, which is now famously known as the Boston Tea Party. This was the spark that would truly ignite the American Revolution and led to the United State’s freedom from England after the signing of the Declaration of Independence in 1776. With Boston wall murals, you not only have a beautiful design that will generate visual weight and interest, but also a remnant of great history. "Boston Massachusetts Skyline, black and white" can evoke sublime feelings with its black and white tones, while "US Cityscape - Boston" gives off a more gritty vibe.

Supplementary information

Like plenty of old American cities, Boston is named after a relatively smaller town in England. Many of the city’s early settlers were from Boston, England, and decided to keep the name. The aforementioned rich history is evident in "Beantown" having many firsts in the United States of America, such as the first public park, Boston Common in 1634. The first public school, Boston Latin, was established in 1635 and the first subway system in the nation, known as the Tremont Street Subway in 1897. Even the first American lighthouse was not actually built in Maine, Cape Cod, or Nantucket, but right in Boston Harbor.

The Pru, or more formally the Prudential Tower, is just one of the many iconic landmarks in the Bostonian horizon. The 52-story, 228 meter skyscraper was completed in 1964. Somewhat nondescript, the design has had its critics but the tower is unmistakable against the city's skyline, and was also majorly responsible for ushering in Boston's rise in skyscrapers. Another staple in Boston wall murals is perhaps the most famous structure in the entire city, Fenway Park. The home of the Red Sox opened in early 1912, making it the oldest ballpark in all of Major League Baseball. See if you can spot the arena, which seats just over 37,000, in Boston wall murals like "Boston Massachusetts Street Map".
