Boston is a big city filled with bigger personalities – and for a short time, we’re making them even bigger! From now until November 11, the outside of our Back Bay hotel is an open gallery, covered in huge 90-foot tall photographs of some of our favorite Boston natives. Call it a love letter to the creators, entrepreneurs, artists and storytellers who make the city what it is: larger-than-life. Literally. Head down to Newbury and see them for yourself!
