Boston - A Great Place For work



Welcome to Boston

Boston is one of the most historically significant cities in America. Near the spot where the Pilgrims landed when they first arrived in America, this Massachusetts city is one of the most important cities in the U.S.

It is called the unofficial capital of New England, and ranks 20th in size for the U.S. The metropolitan area of Boston has a population of 7.6 million people, and is one of the most important financial centers in the U.S.

Boston is an international hub for education, with over 50 institutions for high learning, including Harvard and MIT, not to mention Boston College and Boston University. Students from all over the world work hard in school and try to get the best standardized test scores they can in hopes of attending one of these schools.

Not only is it an important city for education, commerce, industry, electronics, and technology, but it is also a major sports city.

The Red Sox, a Major League Baseball team that has won seven World Series championships, calls Boston home. Their stadium, the famous Fenway Park, has sold out more championship games than any other club in MLB. Fenway Park can hold nearly 40,000 people, and the fans that attend the local baseball games nearly fill the stadium every game.

The Boston Bruins is the local hockey team in the NHL that has captured five Stanley Cup trophies. The Boston Celtics, team of the legendary Larry Bird, have taken home 17 NBA championship titles. Both teams play in TD Garden stadium, which covers 3.2 acres and is worth $160 million.

The New England Patriots are also based in Boston, and this National Football League team has captured three Super Bowl championships. Their home stadium is the Gillette Stadium located just over 20 miles away from downtown Boston. This mammoth stadium can hold over 68,000 people, with 87 luxury seats and 6,000 club seats.

If you visit Boston, you cannot leave without visiting some of the places that depict Boston's historical significance. Walk the Freedom Trail, a 2.5 mile hike along some of the most famous historical sites in Boston. You will see where the Boston Tea Party took place, the house of Paul Revere, the site of the Boston Massacre, and many more places significant to American history.

Take a walk up to Bunker Hill, and see where American soldiers stood bravely against British soldiers in the Revolutionary War. Look at the mammoth obelisk, over 200 feet high, that stands as a commemoration of the bravery of these heroes.

If you are a bibliophile, you cannot pass up the opportunity to visit the Boston Public Library. Home to one of the largest collections of books in the world, the Boston Public Library also holds rare prints, fine pieces of art, and more.

Take a tour of the MIT campus. One of the world's most renowned institution's for technology, Massachusetts Institute of Technology has a sprawling campus and a 90 minute tour through the entire complex. Students work very hard to gain admission to this school, and others in the Boston area, through hard work, good grades, and quality test prep.

The New England Aquarium offers a great source of entertainment to children of all ages, free of charge. Bring the kids to see all kinds of marine life, including sharks swimming in huge tanks, giant sea turtles, and whale-watching cruises.

Love to eat? Take a stroll in the Quincy Market, where every Wednesday they have an International Food Fair in which you can taste food from all over the world at no cost to you. If you love to see parades and floats, Boston has two or more citywide events between the months of March and June.
