But then we heard about a young woman who lost her life in 1983, and that was the end of happy hour not only for Boston, but the entire Commonwealth.

Boston, Massachusetts, Waterfront Welcomes Cool and Interactive Outdoor Space
Boston's waterfront isn't the one that we or our parents remember.

The smoky bars seemed to fit in just fine, and they were filled with nefarious-looking people (not that I'm judging).
