Known as "the Gateway to Boston," City Square marks the spot where Charlestown was original settled in the 17th Century. The park provides a surprising oasis at a major intersection and offers excellent views of downtown Boston. It features 70 different varieties of trees and perennials, as well as a fountain and monuments to Charlestown veterans and its historic role in the U.S. Navy. The park hosts dozens of civic events and may be used for private functions as well. It is maintained, in part, by the nonprofit organization Friends of City Square Park.
Boston Pre-Release Center is a level 3/2 correction facility. Prisons are held here until they are released or have their court hearing. It provides a structured program that allows gradual transition from prison life to the community by means of reintegration through releases to work, education and counseling programs.
Minute Man National Historical Park preserves and interprets significant sites, landscapes and structures where the American Revolution began on April 19, 1775. The park is currently a global symbol of humanity's universal struggle for liberty.
The 1,038-acre park includes the Minute Man statue, the North Bridge (site of "the shot heard round the world") and sections of the Battle Road. Also preserved at the Minute Man National Historical Park is The Wayside, where 19th-century authors kept the spirit of the Revolution alive by contributing to the creation of a uniquely American literature. The five-mile Battle Road Trail allows opportunities for walking, bicycles or wheelchairs and following remnants of the historic road. Individuals may also visit historic houses, farming fields, wetlands and forests along the way.
