EDITORS COMMENTS
South Station, Boston, Massachusetts, USA. Circa 18915. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past of one of America's most historic transportation hubs, South Station in Boston, Massachusetts. The image, taken around 1915, showcases the grandeur and elegance of the Beaux-Arts architecture that defines this iconic building. The neoclassical design, with its tall columns and intricately carved pillars, stands proudly at the corner of Atlantic Avenue and Summer Street. The building's classical motifs, including the American flag proudly displayed atop the main entrance, exude a sense of national pride and prosperity. The bustling scene below reveals a thriving urban environment. Trams and cars line the streets, while rail tracks and trains can be seen in the foreground, symbolizing the importance of transportation in connecting people and communities. The photograph captures the energy and vibrancy of the city, making it a fascinating window into the past. South Station, originally known as the Boston South Station and Back Bay Station, was built between 1891 and 1895, and served as the primary railroad terminal for the city until the 1970s. Today, it is a major transportation hub, serving Amtrak, MBTA commuter rail, and intercity buses. This photograph serves as a reminder of the rich history and enduring significance of South Station in the transportation landscape of Boston and the United States.
