Boston's North End is the Boston's oldest residential community, where people have lived continuously since it was settled in the 1630s. The neighborhood has a mixture of architecture from all periods of American history, including early structures such as the Old North Church (1723) and the Paul Revere House (1680). The Freedom Trail passes through the North End, making official stops at Paul Revere's house and Old North church. In the early 20th century, it became the center of the Italian community of Boston. Today, it is still largely residential and well-known for its small, authentic Italian restaurants. The North End is famous for its selection of bakeries, eateries and Old-world feeling. In this mid-sized neighborhood, there are approximately 100 eating establishments. Click here to see more video segments from the neighborhood.
