Downtown Boston as viewed from the pedestrian walkway near the Hyatt Hotel at Logan Airport. It is a beautiful clear summer morning looking across Boston Harbor. The pointy top structure at the center of the photo was once the Custom House. Some version of a Custom House has stood in the general area since the 1600's. I wonder if that's where the British tried to collect taxes on tea? That didn't work out so well for them. Now the Custom House is a timeshare property owned by the Marriott folks - go figure.
