Art Deco
Art Deco is said to be one of the few architectural styles that most American can recognize and name, and it is among the most popular. Though Boston is less well-known for its Art Deco architecture than New York and Miami, it can claim examples of Art Deco design that would rival New York's finest. The 90-minute walk will showcase examples of Art Deco architecture in government, business, theatre, religious, and retail buildings... from skyscrapers to four-story Deco jewel boxes.
