BOSTON – Sandwiched between the new AVA Theater District tower and the modern HI Boston hostel, Jacob Wirth on Stuart Street downtown stands out as an historical reminder of what used to be common in the budding theater district of the 19th century.
"The neighborhood has gone through a phenomenal amount of change and it's still changing," said Kevin Fitzgerald, the owner of Jacob Wirth's German beer hall. The landmark was created from two 19th century row houses and in many ways reflects its origins, both inside and out.
BOSTON – The former Blessed Sacrament Church on Centre Street in Boston's Jamaica Plain neighborhood is coming back to life after closing its doors in 2004.
This weekend the sounds of ancient folk music will fill the air inside and out as members of the Hyde Square Task Force present the Double Edge Theatre's "Latin American Spectacle," an interactive performance that will begin on the plaza outside, move into the building and reemerge for a carnival-style parade.
