Boston Local Customs: 97 reviews and 67 photos
There's a policy in Boston, Cambridge and many of the surrounding areas that states that any historical building cannot have its appearance altered from the outside. You can do whatever you'd to with it from the inside, but by law, you are now allowed to alter the building from the outside AT ALL. This keeps the buildings looking like their original state.<BR>
<B>Photo:</B> 'Boston's Historical North End' - an area rich in historical buildings and sites. None of the buildings' exteriors have been altered.
