Search this neighborhoodThe West End sits on the Charles River between Beacon Hill and the North End. Most of its older street grid was cleared in urban renewal in the late 1950s and replaced by the Charles River Park apartment towers; the West End Museum on Staniford Street documents that history.
Massachusetts General Hospital on Fruit Street is the main institution, and TD Garden on Legends Way, home of the Celtics and Bruins, sits above North Station. Old West Church on Cambridge Street dates to 1806, and Nashua Street Park runs along the river. North Station serves the Green and Orange lines and commuter rail, and Charles/MGH serves the Red Line.
