Saints Alive! - History
that is Anything but Dead

Launching a new series to celebrate our 60th birthday. We welcome input from neighbors with historical notes /photos. We started  the series with our resident historian, Dan d'Heilly, enlightening us about our Stained Glass heritage!  The talk was held in the library room at the Greenhouse, and Dan had us all enthralled with a brief history lesson followed by a presentation on the stained glass in our neighborhood.  It was such a warm evening that we researched some period-appropriate beverages! Learn more about stained glass here

60 and Fabulous!

We are the Association of the St. Botolph District. On January 25th, 1966 , the association was formed and one of the founding board members was Titus Sparrow!  The neighborhood was developed in the 1850s as a residential neighborhood and is a historical site protected by the St. Botolph Historic District Commission. It consists of a twelve-block area east to west, and its boundaries are Huntington Avenue, Copley Place, the Southwest Corridor Park, and Massachusetts Avenue. The nine streets are Albemarle, Blackwood, Cumberland, Durham, West Newton, Follen, Garrison, Harcourt, and St Botolph St.

Who was St. Botolph?
​It's believed that the word "Boston" is a contraction of Saint Botolph's town. Saint Botolph is the Patron Saint of Travelers and was a Benedictine monk who traveled in England in the 7th Century.

His feast day is celebrated
on the 17th of June!
