I love the views and history I learned high atop the city. This is one of my favority things to do when I visit any city - sit on top of the world! more

The observatory is one floor below the Top of the Hub restaurant and costs $9.50. For that price in the restaurant you can listen to music, get a great view of the city, and have a nice drink. more

My girlfriend and I decided to do the Skywalk because it came free with the purchase of our Go Boston card (although we didn't know this until we picked up our card - I think it's a new addition on the card - but only from about noon to 5:30 pm if I remember correctly). It is a nice view... more

While this is the tallest building in Boston, it isn't that exciting. I got some good photos, but that is about it. If you have ever been to the Empire State Building, this place will be a real let down. But, if you are like me and just want to get up in the tallest building in every town you... more

This tourist attraction was a real let-down. It's located on the 50th floor of the Prudential Building in downtown Boston. From what we read beforehand, we were expecting it to be an outside observation deck. While it does have a great view of the city, it is nothing more than another floor in an office building, which they charge you... more
