Boston, Massachusetts, from the Charles River

Bring a little Boston and Cambridge home.

Matte Hardcover Journal · 150 lined pages · 5.71 × 8.07 inches

Set the journal beside a book and keep a page ready for the things you want to remember. Open water and the banks of the Charles give Boston and Cambridge a shared view, with the managed basin behind the landscape's broad setting.

The Charles River Basin was shaped by the dam completed in 1910, which transformed a tidal estuary into a managed basin. Later Esplanade work in the 1930s and 1950s changed the banks again. The open water in this view belongs to a landscape made through successive public projects.

The basin connects open water with successive public engineering and park projects, keeping the river's familiar appearance tied to the work that shaped its banks. Use it for notes at home or away, with the local picture on the cover.
