The city of Boston,
Massachusetts was founded on September 30th, 1630, and is one of the
oldest cities in the United States. Founded by Puritan colonists, the
town grew quickly, and was the largest city in North America until it
was surpassed by Philadelphia in the mid-1700's. The city played an
extremely important role in the American Revolution - the Boston
Massacre and the Boston Tea Party are iconic events in the history of
the United States, and the city was the site of several major battles.
The city is also home to over 100 universities, including Harvard
University - the oldest in the nation. This beautiful map provides a
look back at a city rich in history. Complete reference list below.
