  • Acorn Street on Beacon Hill – One of the Last True Cobblestoned Streets
    Acorn Street on Beacon Hill – one of the last true cobblestoned streets Boston’s Famous Cobblestones Boston is noted for its cobblestone streets, but, truth be told, most of them are not made of cobblestones. How could this happen? Well, a “cob” in Old English was a rounded mass or lump. Boston’s soil was loaded with these “cobs”, so it was natural we would do whatever we had to do to get rid of as many as possible – from building stone walls to ballast in ships to, you guessed it, paving material. To put many together roughly was to “cobble”. This begat “cobblestone” paving. Many of Old Boston’s streets were made with these “cobblestones”, exactly as we took them out of the ground. This led to many uneven surfaces, broken wheels, and, of course, massive complaints. The problems with the irregular features of the cobblestones led to the creation in the 19th century of “setts”, which were granite stones cut into more or less regularly-shaped rectangles and made the street paving surface much more even. “Setts” became the standard for Boston streets during the 1800’s. However, guidebooks have continued to call these new-fangled paving blocks “cobblestones” as well, but now you know that this is not correct. The only place that TRUE cobblestones are still around in any significant quantity is up in Beacon Hill. Their most famous location is on Acorn Street, which is one of the most photographed parts in the city. But you’ll also see them in some of the worn-down exposed areas of Louisburg Square and close by on a few driveways along Mount Vernon Street.

In presenting this book to the public, it may be well to say a few words in regard to the geographical position of the island, the nature of the coast, and the vast extent of dangerous shoals contigu- ous and stretching seaward for many leagues, which have ever proved a terror to mariners, and upon which so many noble vessels have "wound up their logs" for all time, consigning myriads of human be- ings to a watery grave. The island of Nantucket is situated some thirty miles southeast of Massachusetts, is fifteen miles in length, with an average breadth of four or five, and presents a coast line of about seventy-five miles. Owing to the peculiar shape of the island, and the indentures made by the harbor, the coast line, especially on the northern side, is exceedingly irregular. A light sandy beach extends around the island, and with the exception of a small reef in Muskeget Channel and a few isolated ones in the immediate vicinity of the shore on the north side of the island and Tuckernuck, the coast is entirely clear of rocks.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT THESE studies of the older real estate ownerships of Beacon Hill were originally- made for the 'Boston Evening Transcript/ and were published by that paper in 1923, 1924 and 1925 as a series of sixteen illustrated articles. In spite of due diligence in the collection of the facts, and notwithstanding painstaking efforts to avoid typo- graphical errors, some inaccuracies of statement were inadvertently included in the original papers. Those papers are here reproduced only after careful revision, partially in the light of subsequent infor- mation, several of the chapters having been re- written or expanded. Without the inspiring and whole-hearted assist- ance given the writer by many recognized authori- ties on various aspects of the problems involved in these researches, the result would have been far less satisfactory. Most appreciative acknowledgment of their aid is therefore made to Julius H. Tuttle, Librarian, and to Worthington C. Ford, Editor, of the Massachusetts Historical Society; to Samuel Eliot Morison, historian, biographer of Harrison Gray Otis; to Walter K. Watkins, high authority on Boston antiquarian lore; to William Sumner Appleton, Corresponding Secretary of the Society ACKNOWLEDGMENT for the Preservation of New England Antiquities; to the late Irwin C.
