This self-guided tour takes you to one of the most upscale parts of the city with first its luxury stores then its opulent Victorian-style brownstone mansions.
En route, you can stop for coffee in front of the Boston Garden and visit the French Cultural Center.
You will also stroll along Commonwealth Ave while meditating on the paradox that these beautiful parallel and shaded streets, inspired by Haussmann's renovation of Paris, are located on former marshes.
NB: if you have not already done so on another site, you can read the philosophy and general content of this itinerary by opening the “About the walks” link above or below.
