Beacon Hill (Boston) MA Community Profile & History
Beacon Hill, Massachusetts is a close-knit community in a downtown location. Perhaps best known as the home of the Massachusetts State House, Beacon Hill is also one of Boston's most beautiful and architecturally distinctive neighborhoods. The neighborhood's cobblestone streets and brick rowhouses directly border the Boston Common and the Public Garden, American's first botanical garden. The gold leaf of the State House Rotunda adorns the hill and shines across the Common. A great place for families, this historic neighborhood offers a blend of classic Boston architecture and expansive green space.
Originally settled on land purchased by the Puritans from William Blaxton, the first European settler of Boston, in 1635, the neighborhood had emerged as a political center for the anti-slavery movement by the 19th century. Already renowned as one of the city's most desirable neighborhoods, the community became a prime destination for the nation's social, artistic, and political elites; past and present residents have included 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. For its rich heritage, inimitable architecture and its crucial role in the abolitionist movement, the neighborhood was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1962.
