  • Faneuil Hall Charlestown Navy Yard
    National Park Service U.S. Department of the Interior Boston National Historical Park Boston, MA Faneuil Hall " Those who cannot bear free speech had best go home. Faneuil Hall is no place for slavish hearts'' Wendell Phillips Originally built in 1742 as Boston's town meeting hall and a ground level market, Faneuil Hall is still used today as both a marketplace for goods and ideas. During the American Revolution, patriots James Otis, Samuel Adams, and others spoke here to protest such issues as British government trade restrictions and taxation without representation. Over the years, orators have spoken and debated here on many important topics including slavery, women's rights, temperance and war. Faneuil Hall, Congress Street, Boston 61J-242-5642; free MBTA: Green Line to Government Center Charlestown Navy Yard "A navy is our natural and only defense." John Adams One of the original six federal shipyards established to build warships to defend the liberties of the new nation. From 1800 until it closed in 1974, the "Yard" built, repaired and supplied ships for the U. S. Navy. For much of its history, the Charlestown Navy Yard's ropewalk (built in 1837) produced all of the U.S. Navy's rope. In 1926 die-lock chain was invented here. Die-lock chain is still used by the United States and many of the world's navies!
