Artifact Overview

Boston's North Station, opened in 1893, served commuter and long-distance trains entering the city from the north and west. The building is a hub of activity in this photo with electric streetcars, horse-drawn wagons and people all moving near it. The station was replaced with a new structure in 1927.
