Boston Holocaust Memorial

May 14, 2008

New England Holocaust Memorial, Boston

This was taken within one of the 6 glass towers, each representing a different concentration camp, in the memorial. Each number represents a victim of the genocide that took place there. Steam with a pungent, musty odor rises through grates in the ground to add to the experience.

The memorial was dedicated in 1995 and is in the center of the historic district, near the Union Oyster House, Faneuil Hall, and Government Center.
