January 19, 2008Newbury Street at Berkeley Street, Boston
This view looks southwest from the corner of Newbury and Berkeley Streets in Boston's Back Bay. The brick building in the foreground was built in 1863 as the New England Museum of Natural History; it now houses Louis Boston, the creme-de-la-creme of Boston department stores. The massive block to the right of it is the New England Building. The larger tower with the arched top is 500 Boylston Street (it may look familiar to those who watch the show "Boston Legal". Finally, the glass tower behind it is the 790-foot Hancock Tower, New England's tallest building.
Newbury Street is a favorite spot for shoppers...stores ranging from Burberry and Brooks Brothers to Condomworld and Urban Outfitters offer something for everyone.
