Commercial Wharf Street
Bring a little Boston home.
Square Magnet · 4 × 4 inches
Before leaving the kitchen, check the week's list and the note about your next appointment, with the magnet's little picture sharing that well-used spot on the fridge. Partly renovated warehouse frontage meets Atlantic Avenue at Commercial Wharf Street, with the building's changing use visible in this Boston waterfront view.
The source records Partially renovated warehouse frontage in May 1973, documenting waterfront conversion. The view preserves a particular relationship between Boston Harbor and its shore. Water, buildings and routes form a record of local maritime life at the time of the source.
The frontage connects older warehouse fabric with waterfront conversion, keeping a particular stage of Commercial Wharf's change alongside the harbor's longer working history. It makes a small gift that can find a place beside an ordinary household list.
