  The Streets / Broad Street
   Aerial Before After In Design
The bend in Broad Street traces the boundaries of colonial Boston’s Town Cove leading to State Street, the historic corridor connecting Long Wharf, the Customs House and the Old State House.

This important Crossroads’ widened tree-lined sidewalks connect well-traveled State Street, Faneuil Hall Marketplace and Government Center to the new Rose Kennedy Greenway at the harbor’s edge.

A Broad Street traveler arrives in the heart of the Greenway – at the Wharf District Parks – on the way to water transportation and activities beyond the dramatic Rowes Wharf arch.
