Boston Past and Present: A Discussion of the Significance of Three Sites in the City's Social History.
This paper will examine the history and significance of the Second Church in Boston; the old Scollay Square and the modern City Hall Plaza built on the same site; and the John Hancock Tower. All three sites embody the theme of change, which has dominated the architectural history of the city. Each, in its own way, represents a window upon Boston's history and the social forces that shaped the fabric of the city. 10 pgs. 32 f/c. 5b.
