Few details date this panoramic view of a Boston street corner as firmly as the horse carriages drawn up beside the large hotel. In 1903 the city was in the middle of a transition, with horse-drawn cabs and delivery wagons still sharing the streets with electric streetcars and the first motor cars. Hotels of this size were busy hubs for travelers arriving by train and carriage, and many had barrooms or dining rooms that drew local customers, which may explain the picture's place among taverns and saloons. The wide format lets the viewer take in the whole block at once.
