About East Boston

Once a grazing ground originally composed of 5 islands, East Boston Massachusetts was later cutoff by the rest of the city in 1836 and is separated from the greater Boston area by the Boston Harbor. Because it was island transportation had always been a major setback to the development of the area. As the nation began industrialization underwater tunnels were developed, bridges were building and roads were laid to allow people to travel to this once isolated part of Boston. Today transportation does not hinder a visit to East Boston and its growth and vitality continues to make it a worthwhile place to live work and visit.

Today very grown up from the struggle to become its own area, now East Boston has become a well developed area with an array of things to do and see that make it a great place to visit. Here are a few examples of what East Boston Massachusetts has to offer.
