John Winthrop (Founding, 1630)
"For we must consider that we shall be as a city upon a hill. The eyes of all people are upon us."

CITY UPON A HILL
Boston holds an exceptional place at the forefront of the American project. In 1951, a local journalist proposed a special pedestrian path to link Boston's landmarks and help visitors navigate the town's tangled streets. Today, the red-bricked Freedom Trail connects sixteen historic sites of national significance, comprising public buildings and parks; original burying grounds; churches and meeting houses; America's Ship of State; one Revolutionary battlefield; and a famous Bostonian's home.
