I believe that today is also the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.

the anniversary of the Boston Tea Party.
 
Interesting, I can remember walking down Congress Street in Boston, right by the HMS Beaver (Boston Tea Parrty ship replica). On 16 December 1973. There was no indication that the day was different from any other. I saw no evidence if a ceremony of any kind. Granted, the "Museum" was rather new at the time. Still, I did expect to see some official notice. Perhaps, I just missed it. Thanks for the reminder.
 
 Incidently, I worked on the 2nd floor in that buiding in this image. There used to be an Electric Company there on the 1st floor. The rest of the building was warehouse space for a number of different companies, but now (I believe) it is a site full of high priced condos.  The Victoria Station restaurant was a nice restaurant in the forefront of the building. It was comprised of old freight trains and stuff.  Out of sight in the image just  to the immediate right is the Boston Children's Museum. I do not get to be in that area very often, anymore, but most of those establishments are (I believe) moved along.
