1920s Amazing Street Photographs of Massachusetts
1920 Massachusetts amazing photographs vintage
Photographer Leon Hampartzoum Abdalian was born in Cilician Armenia, Ottoman Empire (now Turkey), circa 1884. He moved with his family to the United States in April of 1896 and eventually settled in the Jamaica Plain neighborhood of Boston.
Abdalian was largely self-taught. For most of his career as a photographer, which lasted from 1913 into the 1960s, he also worked full-time as a conductor on the Boston Elevated Railroad.
Abdalian was primarily a large-format photographer, specializing in photographing historical sites and the park system. Locally, his photographs were published in the Boston Globe, Boston Traveler and Boston Herald newspapers.
In 1930 during the Massachusetts Tercentenary celebration, the Boston Daily Record hired Abdalian as the “Photographer of Historic Shrines” and published a series of his photographs of historic monuments and buildings. He also had photographs published in the National Geographic magazine in March of 1920 as part of an article on business in Massachusetts.
Abdalian retired as a conductor in 1951 but continued his career as a photographer into the 1960s almost to the year of his death in 1967.
These amazing photos from Boston Public Library are part of his work that Leon Abdalian took street scenes of Massachusetts in the 1920s.

Boston's Neighborhoods: Beacon Hill
- An historic, even iconic neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, Beacon Hill is a neighborhood of Federal style rowhouses and is widely known for it's narrow streets, gas lights, brick sidewalks and village like atmosphere. With it's ivy covered fences and lovely gardens, it is widely regarded as one of the most desirable and expensive neighborhoods in Boston.
Named for the location of a former beacon atop the highest point in central Boston, the hill and two nearby hills were substantially reduced in height to allow the development of housing in the area. The entire hill was once owned by William Blaxton, the first European settler of Boston; from 1625 to 1635. He eventually sold his land to the Puritans
Located just north of the Boston Common and Public Garden, Beacon Hill is bounded by the Charles River, Beacon Street and Cambridge Street.
A new station of the MBTA Red Line anchors the north end of the neighborhood, and provides easy commuting options to anywhere in the city and beyond - the perfect neighborhood for those without an automobile.
The Gold leaf of the Massachusetts State House Rotunda adorns the hill and shines across the Common. The lively sport of Massachusetts politics is acted out on the grounds of the State House on a regular basis.
Across from the State House, the Boston Common Frog Pond is a joyful jewel in this historic park. As a reflection and wading pool in the warmer months with a nearby cafe and playground, it transforms into beautiful skating rink during the winter.
Beacon Hill is also home to the real live Cheers bar of TV fame as well as numerous shops, restaurants, professional services, antique shops, apparel stores and boutiques, which dot Charles Street. No WalMarts or Dunkin' Donuts here - Charles Street is filled with unique one of a kind shops and restaurants. These businesses take personal pride in their offerings, with a wide array of food, unusual gifts, apparel and antiques from all over the world. Best of all, you'll very likely be greeted by the store owner for that personal touch! Gary Drug is one of the few independent pharmacies left in America! Whether you need a grocery store, shoe store, or hardware store - it's all within walking distance if you live in Beacon Hill.
For its rich heritage, inimitable architecture and its crucial role in the abolitionist movement, the neighborhood was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1962.
Beacon Hill has been home to many past and present notable residents over the years, including statesmen John Hancock and Daniel Webster; writers Louisa May Alcott, Oliver Wendell Holmes, Sr. and Michael Crichton; senators Henry Cabot Lodge, Charles Sumner, Edward Kennedy and John Kerry; poets Sylvia Plath, Robert Frost, Julia Ward Howe, and Anne Sexton; Supreme Court Justice Oliver Wendell Holmes, Jr.; painters John Singleton Copley and Chester Harding; and actors Edwin Booth and Uma Thurman.
Beacon Hill is home to a wide variety of residential styles. A great place for families, this historic neighborhood offers a blend of classic Boston architecture and expansive green space.
Current housing in Beacon Hill runs the gamut from tiny studio apartments, to grand, single family residences. With the earliest houses dating back to the late 1700s, and new condominiums such as the Tudor, 34.5 Beacon, 50 Beacon and The Amory, and 96 Beacon which offer modern, luxury amenities (some are doorman buildings) along with restored period detail and oftentimes with beautiful views of the Common and the Garden, there is something for everyone in Beacon Hill.
The holidays are an especially beautiful time in Beacon Hill. In fact, it feels like you just went back to a quieter time - before shopping malls, cars, and the hustle and bustle. The annual holiday stroll draws people from all over the area.
Beautiful Acorn Street is often mentioned as one of the most picturesque (and most frequently photographed) street in the United States. Interesting architectural details, brick row houses with colorful doors, creative door knockers, decorative ironwork, brick sidewalks, narrow streets and real gas lamps make Beacon Hill a feast for the eyes.
Once you visit Beacon Hill, you'll see why many find that just living here to be the best attraction of them all!

BOSTON - USA Travel Guide | Around The World
Boston is the largest city in New England, the capital of the state of Massachusetts, and one of the most historic, wealthy and influential cities in the United States of America. Its plethora of museums, historical sights, and wealth of live performances, all explain why the city gets 16.3 million visitors a year, making it one of the ten most popular tourist locations in the country.
Although not technically in Boston, the neighboring cities of Cambridge and Brookline are functionally integrated with Boston by mass transit and effectively a part of the city. Cambridge, just across the Charles River, is home to Harvard, MIT, local galleries, restaurants, and bars and is an essential addition to any visit to Boston. Brookline is nearly surrounded by Boston and has its own array of restaurants and shopping.
Boston is a city of diverse neighborhoods, many of which were originally towns in their own right before being annexed to the city. This contributes to a strong pride within the neighborhoods of Boston, and many people will often tell you they are from JP (Jamaica Plain), Dot (Dorchester), Southie (South Boston), or Eastie (East Boston), rather than that they are from Boston. Alternatively, people from the suburbs will tell you they are from Boston when in fact they live in one of the nearby (or even outlying) suburbs. If in doubt, you can look for Resident Parking Only street signs, which will identify what neighborhood you are in.
Another consequence of this expansion is that the neighborhoods, in addition to their cultural identities, also retained most of their street names, regardless of whether or not Boston -or another absorbed town- already had a street with the same name. According to a survey by The Boston Globe, there are at least 200 street names that are duplicated in one or more neighborhoods in Boston. For instance, Washington Street in Downtown Boston, is different from Washington Street in Dorchester and another Washington Street in Jamaica Plain. This can play havoc with web-based mapping and direction services.
Be aware that geographic references in district names tend to mean little. For example, South Boston is different from the South End, which is actually west of South Boston and north of Dorchester and Roxbury districts. Some other confusing notables: East Boston and Charlestown are further north than the North End. The West End is in the northern part of town (bordering the North End and Charles River).
Among Boston's many neighborhoods, the historic areas of Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Chinatown, Downtown, Fenway-Kenmore, the Financial District, Government Center, the North End, and the South End comprise the area considered Boston Proper. It is here where most of the buildings that make up the city's skyline are located.
The Back Bay is one of the few neighborhoods with streets organized on a grid. It is so named because it used to be mud flats on the river, until the city filled in the bay in a land-making project ending in 1862. It is now one of the higher-rent neighborhoods in the city. The north-south streets crossing the axis of Back Bay are organized alphabetically. Starting from the east, at the Public Garden, and heading west, they are: Arlington, Berkeley, Clarendon, Dartmouth, Exeter, Fairfield, Gloucester (pronounced 'gloster'), and Hereford. After Hereford Street is Massachusetts Avenue, more commonly known as Mass. Ave., and then Charlesgate, which marks the western boundary of Back Bay. The alphabetical street names continue a little way into the Fenway neighborhood on the other side of Charlesgate, with Ipswich, Jersey, and Kilmarnock, but the streets are no longer arranged in a grid.
Navigating the streets of Boston is difficult if you are not familiar with the area. While other American cities have their streets laid out in a grid (New York, Chicago, Indianapolis, Philadelphia, Phoenix), or along a river, lake, or other geographical feature (New Orleans, Cleveland), the modern streets of Boston are a twisty and seemingly incomprehensible maze. Boston in the 1600s was a narrow peninsula surrounded by farmland and distant settlements. Landfill, urban expansion, waves of radical economic change, and new technologies have seen sensible street patterns added on to and collide in less sensible ways. Due to dense development, the older street patterns have largely remained in place without being adapted to their modern surroundings. In this way, Boston is more similar to old European cities than most typical large American cities that were geometrically planned, expanded into unsettled land, or were mainly settled in the late 20th century.
