Once a thriving, energetic, and diverse neighborhood, the West End was slated for complete removal following World War II. In over 200 marvelous photographs, this collection recaptures fond memories for former residents and shows newcomers the history of the West End. Now the site of luxury, high-rise apartment buildings, condominiums, and stores, Boston's West End was once the site of many Bulfinch-designed townhouses owned by prominent families. In later years, the neighborhood was home to a diverse ethnic and religious community of families who arrived in Boston from all parts of the world. Today, \u003cbr\u003ethree decades after the West End was virtually leveled, it is still fondly remembered by many who once called it home.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Arcadia Publishing Library Editions\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 10\/19\/1998\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781531640804\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 130\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.91lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.61h x 6.69w x 0.38d","brand":"Anthony Mitchell Sammarco","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":36656963944604,"sku":"9781531640804","price":33.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_de22e0e6-f91f-48e0-a13a-06ad7e961af4.jpg?v=1603889425","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/bostons-west-end-9781531640804","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
