"Lived in MA for 60 years and didn’t know the old city hall still existed. I couldn’t believe how beautiful it was when I came across it walking around the city. Incredible that it was replaced with a Brutalist monstrosity. The two buildings are a perfect metaphor for the decline of Massachusetts."
"While walking the Freedom Trial, you'll no doubt pass Boston's Old City Hall. This towering building was constructed around 1865, and features a statue of Benjamin Franklin out front. The outside is shaded by tall trees and very photogenic. History buffs will definitely want to stop and take out their cameras, read the inscriptions on the statues, and enjoy the moment."
"Classic and historical. Building is now used for business. Some people are performing outside by the walkway. Definitely no parking space. Find a garage"
"The Old City Hall in Boston, witnessed during a cold and dreary weekend, is a sight to behold. Although we didn't venture inside, the exterior's timeless beauty and impeccable preservation left a lasting impression. Its architectural grandeur stands as a testament to Boston's rich history and cultural heritage. The ornate details and majestic façade evoke a sense of awe, making it a captivating landmark to admire from the outside. This historic gem adds an enchanting touch to the city's landscape, reminding visitors of Boston's storied past and architectural splendor."
"The whole white housing with the statue of Franklin and Donkey/Elephant steps. Strongly recommend visitors to take a look here!! In front of this City Hall, you will find Latin School Mark on the street."
