Get a better sense of Boston’s history with this walking tour of the North End and the Charlestown Navy Yard. We will visit the Edmund Hartt shipyard, where USS Constitution was originally built; the site of the 1919 Great Molasses Flood; the Prince Street location where the Boston Civil War Draft Riot began in 1863; and the location of the infamous 1950 Great Brink’s Robbery. Next, we will make our way across the North Washington Street bridge and into Charlestown. Once in the Navy Yard, we will discuss its founding as one of the original six naval ship yards in the US.
