Like most cities, Boston is a diverse place comprised of distinct neighborhoods—no one part of town can truly be called any more Boston than any other. That having been said, if there was such a neighborhood, it would be the Back Bay. Walking its streets feels like walking through our collective idea of Boston: signature architecture, nationally known landmarks, and the sparkling Charles River all come together to create a neighborhood that is, literally, as pretty as a postcard.
