About the Tour:
You’ve never toured Boston in anything that comes close to Boston Duck Tours. The fun begins as soon as you board your “DUCK”, a W.W.II style amphibious landing vehicle. First, you’ll be greeted by one of our legendary tour ConDUCKtors®, who’ll be narrating your sightseeing tour of Boston. Then you’re off on a journey like you’ve never had before. You’ll cruise by all the places that make Boston the birthplace of freedom and a city of firsts, from the golden-domed State House to Bunker Hill and the TD Banknorth Garden, Boston Common and Copley Square to the Big Dig, Government Center to fashionable Newbury Street, Quincy Market to the Prudential Tower, and more. And, as the best of Boston unfolds before your eyes, your ConDUCKtor® will be giving you lots of little known facts and interesting insights about our unique and wonderful city. And just when you think you’ve seen it all, there’s more. It’s time for “Splashdown” as your ConDUCKtor® splashes your DUCK right into the Charles River for a breathtaking view of the Boston and Cambridge skylines, the kind of view you just won’t get anywhere else.

Kayaking The Charles River Boston | Paddling Into The Charles River Basin
Over the course of the past year I have explored by water kayaking the Charles River. From the rivers head in Hopkinton to its end in Boston, Massachusetts. It winds the same paths that it has since the Settlers arrived and meet the Massawachett indian tribe who once flourished in this area. A Historic river in many senses, it has been heavily used, abused, cleaned and recently was declared again, a swimmable river. The last 12 Miles passes thru the towns of Waltham, Newton, Watertown, Allston, Brighton, Cambridge and Boston. You will see all kinds of iconic sites. The Fenway’s Citgo sign, Harvard University, MIT University, The Prudential building, The Hancock Building, The State House, The Hatshell, Lonfellow bridge, Science Museum and The Zakim Bridge are just a few!
Everyone should experience this trip!

Boston Architectual Tour to Happy Hardcore
Whilst in Boston I took the Architectural Boat tour, which departs from the CambridgeSide Galleria through the Charles River Boat company daily, subject only to weather. The tour lasts 90 minutes and includes detailed commentary on the key buildings, bridges and sites to adorn the harbour.
What struck me most about Boston’s skyline was the amount of Brutalist architecture present, which to me looks like old-fashioned concrete slab buildings at first glance. Brutalist architecture is one of those controversial styles that people either love or hate, but mostly hate for is lack of obvious aesthetic. It is characterised by angular geometric shapes, blunt and exposed details, lack of or no adornment, and the use of concrete. During the mid 1990s concrete had become the main choice of material for architects in Boston as opposed to in New York where new buildings were being constructed in steel. Concrete was seen as a much more affordable option and Boston-based architects were also highly influenced by Europe (many of whom originated from Europe), which was also going through a concrete phase, especially in the UK. Brutalist architecture prizes function over aesthetic and at first glance can be quite ugly. However I felt drawn to its lack of imagination and harsh lines as a reflection of an era past, a time where harsh reality dictated the day and poverty, race issues, gender equality, and the cold war were key themes that occupied this American society rather than frivolous decoration. My favourite example of Brutalist architecture in Boston are the Harbour Towers, two great big blocks of white concrete with symmetrically lined black-looking windows dotting each building face and a row of balconies running down the corner side which look like a chunky black zipper. They were designed by Henry N. Cobb and erected in 1971, originally as affordable housing in a poor, warehouse district close to the city. However due to its prime location on the harbour and stunning views they have now become expensive luxury condominiums.
What I found to be a most odd specimen of architecture was the new headquarters of EF Education First, which was at the time undergoing construction and close to completion during my visit. The facade of the building appears cut and twisted to resemble a waterfall, which looks altogether very odd given the overall shape of the complex is a perfectly unimaginative white square.
