Boston Luxury City Guide: The historic city of Boston is just as modern as it is rich in history. As one of the oldest cities in America, Boston has been a part of American history since being founded as a town back in 1630. Since then, it has grown from being a hub of social and political importance into being one of the most cultural and economic cities in New England.

Surrounded by hospitals and universities, Boston is rich in culture and education, from museums celebrating Boston's rich history to its "Emerald Necklace" of green park spaces, including the famous Boston Common.

With skyscrapers merging seamlessly with wide-open park spaces and gourmet dining, there is something for everyone in Boston, from the sublime to the ridiculously sublime.

City Scene:
Boston is home to several unique neighborhoods, each with their own special character.

Beacon Hill is one of Boston's oldest neighborhoods, taking its name from a beacon that once stood upon its hill to warn of foreign invasion. Now, it is home to streets lined with brick row houses in Colonial style and restaurants and antique shops.

In the Back Bay area, not only will you find some of Boston's finest skyline, including the Prudential Center and the John Hancock Tower, as well as Trinity Church and the Boston Public Library, you will also find some of the best shopping in the country. Check out Newbury Street and Copley Place or in the Natick Collection for some of the chicest fashions ever. Boylston Street and Commonwealth Avenue are filled with unique boutiques, trendy restaurants and the occasional celebrity as well.
