At Davio's, It's All About the Guest. For reservations please call 617.357.4810 MUSIC AND MORE Now in its second year at the Harvard Athletic Complex in Allston, Boston Calling (refer to listing, page 16) has grown in scope yet again. Not only is the city’s biggest music festival once again chock full of big-name headliners (do The Killers, Jack White and Eminem ring a bell?) and dozens of other artists in a variety of genres, it is also finally debuting a film festival curated by Academy Award-winning actress (and former Harvard University student) Natalie Portman (pictured) that was postponed from last year. Comedy acts, live podcasts, the state’s biggest ferris wheel(!), a slew of the Hub’s best food purveyors and adult beverages from Samuel Adams, Mikkeller, Barefoot Wine and Miller Lite round out what is sure to be an all-out, three-day party over Memorial Day weekend, May 25–27. WHAT BOSTON’S BUZZING ABOUT 5.21.18 THE GREAT(ER) OUTDOORS How do you make a popular warm-weather destination even more desirable? By adding beer, of course. For the second year in a row, Boston’s Rose Kennedy Greenway (refer to listing, page 44) hosts a beer garden near Rowes Wharf run by one of the city’s most acclaimed brewers, the Fort Point-based Trillium Brewing Company. The patio—also serving vintages from Westport River Winery—is expected to be open Wednesday through Sunday beginning in late May, and is scheduled to be joined down the road by another local favorite, East Boston’s Downeast Cider House, which is set to open its “Back Porch” in Dewey Square across from South Station at about the same time. 6 PANORAMA HUBBUB CELEBRATE THE RAINBOW Filled with parties, charity fundraisers, a parade and more, Boston Pride Week (refer to listing, page 18), sporting the theme of “Rainbow Resistance” for 2018, once again kicks off with a flag-raising ceremony (pictured) at Boston City Hall, which takes place June 1 at noon. That day at 7:30 p.m., enjoy a free screening of the family-friendly animated filmFerdinand on Boston Common. Other early highlights include Pride Day @ Faneuil Hall at Faneuil Hall Marketplace on June 2, which includes the High Heel Dash for Charity at 11:30 a.m. and a full lineup of music, drag performers and family fun until 5 p.m., when the festivities shift to the nearby Bell in Hand Tavern for the after-party. That same location hosts the Brunch of Queens drag brunch the next day from 11 a.m.–2 p.m., while the 33rd annual AIDS Walk & Run Boston takes place on Boston Common beginning at 10 a.m. GARDEN PARTY Frederick Law Olmsted’s Emerald Necklace (refer to listing, page 43), a chain of parks that stretches throughout the city, is, more than a century after its creation, one of Boston’s enduring gems. Yet even a masterpiece needs a bit of help. Enter the 15th annual Party in the Park. Hosted by the Emerald Necklace Conservancy to help underwrite park improvements and upkeep, this year’s fiesta takes place at Olmsted’s Franklin Park on May 31 beginning at 11 a.m. Filled with fine cuisine, award presentations, raffles and plenty of creative, colorful hats, this is one of the most anticipated social events of the spring. Tickets can be purchased at 501auctions.com/pip2018. FOOD WITH HEART You can never have too much of a good thing, so it makes sense that after a successful, award-winning tenure in Boston’s Allston neighborhood, fast-casual vegetarian eatery Whole Heart Provisions (298 Massachusetts Ave., Cambridge, 617-945-8991, wholeheartprovisions.com) has expanded to Kendall Square. Leading with the concept of crafting accessible, healthy and creative fast food without compromising quality, the new location features Whole Heart’s usual array of options—including carrot and radish kimchi and beets—served on top of rice, arugula or marinated kale, along with new choices like the Asian-themed Kaya (a melange of, among other things, basil, green beans, cabbage, roasted broccoli and peanut crumble) and the Levant, a Middle Eastern-inspired mixture of falafel, eggplant, cucumber, tahini and more. —Scott Roberto BOTTOM PHOTO: BRIAN SAMUELS BOSTONGUIDE.COM 7 PANORAMA’s GUIDE TO THE SOUTH END Pride Week or any week, Boston’s bastion of gay culture is always a great destination for dining, arts and hidden-gem landmarks BY SCOTT ROBERTO Boston Center for the Arts It’s all here: artists’ studios, theaters, a gallery, restaurants (including Banyan Bar + Refuge, pictured) and the historic Cyclorama, home to the BCA Ball fundraiser and Disco Under the Dome dance party on June 2. 539 Tremont St., 617-426-5000, bcaonline.org Petit Robert Bistro Ink Block This French favorite has been This luxury development hosts res- serving classic Gallic cuisine— taurants, a hotel, a Whole Foods think escargots and coq au vin— and the adjacent Underground at in a comfortable, Paris-inspired Ink Block park (pictured), which atmosphere since 2005. recently debuted a beer garden. 480 Columbus Ave., 617-867-0600, 300 Harrison Ave., 617-391-0117, petitrobertbistro.com inkblockboston.com 8 PANORAMA BOTTOM RIGHT PHOTO: SCOTT ROBERTO Formaggio Kitchen Gourmet goods from cheese, char- cuterie and chocolate to olive oil, beer and wine can be found at the South End outpost of this specialty SoWa Art + Design District/Thayer Street shop.

Thank you for choosing Boston and the Hynes for your upcoming event, which will be in one of the top convention centers in the world. That’s not an empty boast: the Hynes recently earned the International Association of Congress Centres' (AIPC) gold standard, the highest certification level a convention facility can achieve under AIPC's strict guidelines. In fact, both the Hynes and the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center in South Boston are now only the fourth and fifth in North America and the 14th and 15th in the world to achieve AIPC's gold standard. During your event, we hope you see what sets us apart and makes us among the best meeting and convention destinations in the world. AIPC's certification process examines 10 key areas of a convention center's operations, including customer service, quality of facilities and operations, employee relations, health, safety, security and emergency response, financial integrity, community relations, environmental responsibility, and industry and supplier relations. The Hynes, located in the heart of Boston’s dynamic Back Bay, offers visitors a high-tech, leading edge facility with a flexible floor plan that can accommodate events of all types and sizes. Conveniently located and in close proximity to Boston’s most popular hotels, historical sites, and tourist attractions, the Hynes boasts 360,000 square feet of handicap-accessible space, including 193,000 square feet of exhibit space, a 25,000-square-foot ballroom, and 35 meeting rooms.

  • Boston, Massachusetts Rich in History Steps from Luxury
    BOSTON, MASSACHUSETTS RICH IN HISTORY STEPS FROM LUXURY Situated alongside the picturesque Charles River in Boston’s historic Back Bay neighborhood, 607 Boylston Street offers unparalleled convenience and superior access. Famous for its rows of Victorian-era brownstones and architecturally-significant buildings, including the Boston Public Library and Trinity Church, the Back Bay reigns as one of Boston’s premier shopping destinations. Steps from the famed Newbury Street shopping district, the Copley Place shopping center and the Shoppes at the Prudential Center, there is no shortage of luxury retailers in the area. From the Mandarin Oriental to the Taj, ritzy hotels combine with upscale dining to round out the Back Bay’s skyline. In addition to these world-class retail options, the Back Bay boasts an abundance of other amenities. The neighborhood’s location along the Charles River allows for a considerable amount of waterfront property, and the Charles River Esplanade is a popular greenspace for walkers, runners, and cyclists. Boston Public Gardens and Boston Common are practically right next door, giving residents and tourist alike easy access to the city’s most famous parks.

The Prudential Center was one of seven Regional Home Offices (RHOs) planned by Prudential in the 1950s to decentralize its management. What began as an effort to reinvigorate the company’s bureaucratic makeup evolved into a prominent building program and urban planning phenomenon, promoting the economic prospects of each RHO city and reshaping the geography of the business district.
