Text Appearing Before Image:
ee other hills on the left, formerly known as Dor-chester Heights, now South Boston. On these three hills are nowsituated the following places: On the one the farthest to theright, Thomas Park and the Reservoir ; on the middle one, the In-stitution for the Blind; and on the one farthest to the left, In-dependence Square. The foreground of this engraving shows theCommon, the Old Elm and the Tremont Street Mall. The shoreline of the Back Bay, as shown here, is about where Charlesstreet now is. The view was probably taken from the site of theNew State House. The building in the foreground, at the right,is thought to be that of Hancocks or Copelys. Nearly all theterritory shown here is now included in Boston ; the Public Gar-den and the finest residences in the city are located on what wasthe Back Bay, the larger portion of which has been filled in dur-ing the past twenty-five years. That portion of Dorchester, nowSouth 3oston, was annexed in 1804, Roxbury in 1868 and Dor-chester in 1870.
