City Hall, Boston, MA

Boston, MA

Concrete. and lots of it. In comparison to the surrounding city, this structure looks like a penitentiary was constructed in the heart of the City. It is grey. It is enormous. and the tiny rectangle windows are recessed, further informing the world that justice is hidden from the population. A smidge of reading educated me that this structure belonged to the 1950's and 60's Brutalist movement in architecture, which should've been warning enough to stay away. Increasing the ire is the surrounding plaza. My first statement was "this must be handicap hell!" You know, I have never seen anyone in a wheelchair in the plaza.
