Details

Linda Perlman has been giving walking tours throughout Boston’s historic streets for 25 years. First, working with Boston By Foot and then starting the business, Walking Tours Boston. She delights in telling the story of Quincy Market and what happened after the American Revolution. Mayor Josiah Quincy on opening day, August 26,1826, welcomed everyone with the words, “The market is to be an ornament to the city…an object of pleasure to the whole community.” Two hundred years later the ‘Festival Market’ concept lives on.
