"Boylston" Station sign sees the light of day !

Here is the beautiful wall sign directing passengers to connections on the BERy's "Main Line" at Boylston Station. The station's entrance here on Lagrange Street, is all but forgotten, but still connects with "Chinatown" it's current name (previously Essex). White tiled walls, maple elliptically-shaped hand railings, cast iron stanchions and bench work - this entrance was a stunner, and must have hosted tuxedoed theatre-goers en route home from the opera in it's day. It is presently unused as an entrance since the early '70's.
