Future History Trail: Downtown Boston Walking Tour

What story do you want the future to tell? Let's remix the Boston walking tour experience to put you in the driver's seat.

We'll walk and talk through this city, with the goal of walking the talk for the future we'd like to live in for generations to come.

In Boston, some stories are well known, some embellished, and some forgotten. It's a city where the past can feel present, and where the pace of innovation can make the future feel like it’s already here. But most importantly, this is a city where those two forces come together constantly.

This is where we find ourselves: at the final page of the thousands of years of past history, and on the first page of the future's history.

Through exploring the experiences of where we’ve been collectively, we can explore where we’re going and take steps together towards a future that we can all look forward to, and reconnect with each present moment we live in now.

You’ll have opportunities to take action towards a future you want during or after the tour connected to each stop. This is meant not only as an in-person experience, but also as an open resource to outlive this initiative so you can take it in your own way! Of course, as a collaborative endeavor, you’re welcome to add your own perspectives and steps to take too!

Ultimately, Boston is a city of history. Each day, someone’s going to write the future’s history, for better or for worse. Will it be you?

Let's explore!
