The trail starts near the northeast corner of Boston Common. Along the way you see places like the Boston Latin School site and Ben Franklin statue, Faneuil Hall, Paul Revere House and the Old North Church and Paul Revere Statue.
The building was completed in 1798. The interior was renovated in 2014. There is currently work going on outside the building.
The church is located across from historic Boston Common at the intersection of Park Street and Tremont Street. The 217-foot-tall steeple is visible from much of Boston Common. It is now dwarfed by many of the city’s modern buildings.
The church’s engagement efforts include a homeless outreach ministry and a food bank.

Citizens of Boston purchased the land in 1634 for the purpose of having a shared area to graze cattle.
I’m guessing the days of cattle grazing on the Common are long gone, I least I didn’t see any.
A few of the trees were showing their autumn colors during my recent visit in the first week of November.
