The Esplanade: The View from the River
Boarding at CambridgeSide Galleria | For those who enjoyed listening to Linda Cox speak about the history of the Charles River Esplanade in February, and to those who may have missed out- you have another chance! This time, however, we shift from viewing historic images of the Esplanade to viewing it up close and personal from the Charles River. Please join the Alliance and Linda Cox as we embark on Charles I, a turn of the century touring boat from the the Charles River Boat fleet, and take a closer look at the history and the shaping of the Esplanade over the years. The tour fee of $35 per person includes light refreshments and a cash bar will also be available. This event is limited to 60 people so reserve your spot soon. Please contact Erin Ware at eware@bostonpreservation.org or 617-367-2458 for reservations.
