Old-world feel and sites in the heart of Boston

Historic Architecture Culture Trendy

The Blackstone Block, one of Boston’s most treasured historic resources, is located near City Hall and several prominent dining and tourism destinations. On the east it is adjacent to Faneuil Hall and Quincy Marketplace, and to the north it neighbors the Boston Public Market. On the east is the historic Haymarket and the Rose Kennedy Greenway. The Blackstone Block is a Boston Landmark, protected for its intact historic street pattern, not the buildings within it.

The network of narrow alleys and open spaces that run through Blackstone are a remnant of 17th century design, but today they’ve become home to several new businesses.
