una pizza sublime, fina como una hoja, grande como una bandeja, barata y suculenta en el precioso barrio de beacon hill...
ambiente agradable en un local minusculo con horno, ventana a la calle, barra, un must de boston, sin duda

arquitecto I.M.PEI
de la web:

The John Fitzgerald Kennedy Presidential Library and Museum was designed by I.M. Pei & Partners, New York City.

Jacqueline Kennedy played a major role in the selection of I.M. Pei to be the architect of the Kennedy Library. At an early meeting in 1964, Mr. Pei explained to Mrs. Kennedy, somewhat apologetically, that as a relatively young architect he had not worked on monumental projects. Though relatively unknown and obscure at the time, Mrs. Kennedy nevertheless selected Pei from a list of candidates that included of some America’s best-known architects. He seemed to her so filled with promise and he had the imagination and temperament to create a structure that would reinforce her vision of the goals of the library.

Ieoh Ming Pei was born in Canton, China in 1917. He left China when he was eighteen to study architecture at MIT and Harvard. Between 1942 and 1945, he worked as a concrete designer for Stone and Webster, and in 1946 he began work in the office of Hugh Asher Stubbins, in Boston.

MISSION
The Institute of Contemporary Art strives to share the pleasures of reflection, inspiration, provocation, and imagination that contemporary art offers through public access to art, artists, and the creative process.

The primary activities of the ICA are threefold:

• To present outstanding contemporary art in all media, including visual art
exhibitions, music, film, video and performance, that is deserving of public
attention and has not been presented in depth to Boston audiences
• To provide innovative experiential learning opportunities for people of all ages
through direct encounters with artists and art making
• To design interpretative programs that provide context, develop appreciation,
and add meaning to contemporary art and culture

interior impresionante

from wikipedia:
The Old North Church (officially Christ Church), at 193 Salem Street, in the North End of Boston, Massachusetts, is the location from which the famous "One if by land, and two if by sea" signal is said to have been sent. This phrase is related to Paul Revere's midnight ride, of April 18, 1775, which preceded the Battles of Lexington and Concord during the American Revolution.

The church is a mission of the Episcopal Diocese of Massachusetts. The Old North Church is the oldest active church building in Boston and is a National Historic Landmark. Inside the church is a bust of George Washington, which the Marquis de Lafayette reportedly remarked was the best likeness of him he had ever seen.

The Old North Church was built in 1723, and was inspired by the works of Christopher Wren, a British architect who was responsible for rebuilding London after the Great Fire.
