Rising from the ashes The horrific events of April 15 are sure to leave scars on this city. But as the nation—and, indeed, the world—has witnessed, Boston is nothing if not a resilient town. After becoming a crime scene for more than a week following the Boston Marathon bombings, much of the area surrounding the finish line in the Back Bay was closed not only to the public but the employees who worked at the many establishments in the neighborhood. While one business—the restaurant Forum on Boylston Street, which sustained a direct hit from one of the explosions and is still forming plans to re-open this summer stronger than ever—remains closed, others have re-opened to enthusiastic customers eager to support them. Many have even participated in fund-raising efforts for the victims of the blasts, showing that even in their time of need, Boston’s business community had the needs of others firmly in mind and is, indisputably, “Boston Strong.”—Scott Roberto

What Boston’s buzzing about Concert for a cause On May 30, Boston’s rock and comedy royalty comes together for an 5.27.13 unprecedented event to benefit the victims of the Boston Marathon bombings. Boston Strong: An Evening of Support & Celebration at the TD Garden (800-745-3000 or ticketmaster.com) features such legendary music acts as Aerosmith (including Steven Tyler, lead singer, pictured), New Kids on the Block, The J. Geils Band, Boston, Extreme, Godsmack and James Taylor, as well as Hub comedy titans Steven Wright and Dane Cook. Welcome non-Bostonians performing include Jimmy Buffet, Carole King and Jason Aldean. All proceeds will go to The One Fund Boston (onefundboston.org), which was created by Governor Deval Patrick and Boston Mayor Thomas Menino to help those affected by the attack.—Scott Roberto above photo: Steve Pleines; 6 Panorama Hubbub bottom photo © ron Pownall Sports Hub Not many people today can say they saw Ted Williams play in person, and even fewer can claim to have seen a game at Braves Field. But whether you’re a lifelong Boston sports fan or not, you can enjoy a little glimpse into the past at Boston Sports Temples, an exhibit at the Boston Public Library (refer to listing, page 42) that explores such beloved—and in some cases, departed—venues as Suffolk Downs, Fenway Park and the original Boston Garden through remarkable historic photos that show the evolution of these revered Hub icons and the fans who flocked through the gates. Catch this engaging show now before it closes May 31. —Scott Roberto

Clever Leather Known throughout the world for its exceptional craftsmanship and cutting-edge style, The Frye Company has been cranking out great footwear since 1863. Born out of a small shop in Marlborough, Mass., this daring company has expanded into an internationally recognized luxury brand, selling everything from women’s and men’s boots, shoes and sandals to edgy leather handbags and exceptional accessories. Lucky for those in need of a sturdy pair, Frye has opened its Boston flagship store at 284 Newbury St. (617-247-3793) in the swank Back Bay. Stop by for a comfortable pair of Chelsea boots or perhaps some fun flats that your friends will not soon forget. —Paul Adler

Glorious Glasses Fashion hounds on Newbury Street did not believe their eyes as the Warby Parker (83 Newbury St., 508-658- 7444) showroom hit the Back Bay this spring. Those devoted to funky frames will already be familiar with this high-end retailer of luxury sunglasses and eyeglasses that originated online. After accruing a devoted following, the company recently opened a New York showroom that is already making major waves in the Big Apple. Warby Parker has finally opened a Boston outpost complete with a wide, mirror-filled space, shelves stocked with books from independent publishers and, of course, a massive collection of the company’s signature frames. Better yet, an on-hand optometrist is present to aid in securing the correct prescription for that perfect pair. —Paul Adler top photo: DOERR, WILLIAMS AND DIMAGGIO OF THE RED SOX SHOW THEIR REACH, AT FENWAY PARK, 1940, Leslie Jones Collection, Boston Public Library, Print Department BOSTONGUIDE.COM 7 a peek at the past Taking the Mystery out of Boston History Trini ty Church
