Thanks for the "ride" Jim.I live in Alabama and have had the pleasure of visiting Boston and Franklin 3 times,the last time was 16 years ago.Would love to go back but at my age 76,I will not likely do so .So much rich history there !! Again Thanks and GOD Bless You !!
Thank you for watching!
Boston is one of the nice and pleasant cities of the world..
I am in Boston now and watching this. The city is gorgeous!
I moved from MA to AZ in '92. It's nice seeing Boston again from the drivers perspective. So many improvements. I love the "before and after" shots and your usage of street signs. A very well done video. Thanks for sharing.
How beautiful it is to be here and be able to succeed in my work, Thank God for allowing me to enjoy this beautiful place.🤗💞
You have the best music in your videos. AND ... Wow, I love Boston. I've been there but it was a long time ago. It's so intriguing to see it through the lens of a camera like this -- you get to see how clean the city is.
Thank you very much Carrie, this is my best and most recent (2014 but the same gear I use now) Boston video if you have not seen it yet. ua-cam.com/video/dXcIyX2_gio/v-deo.html
I love street tours. Every city should have videos like this. :)
I also love street tours. I totally agree with you. Right, every city
should have videos like this.
Boston is a beautiful city!
I've never seen the streets of Boston so deserted! Try this drive at 5pm on a Friday! LOL
Seems to be midmorning Sunday.
REAL TRUTH Fort myers and Cape coral are becoming heavily congested and are very expensive areas for what most of the native population makes. Most kids (19-27) i know plan on leaving, myself included, to head to higher paying northern states (like ma)

A nice tribute to a beautiful city.
Greetings from Sweden!
it has been 20 years since i drove those streets in boston. i left in 92 thanx for the ride.
This place is fascinating!
Beautiful city.
Looks-likw I can take 90East from Chicago straight to Boston..might do that
No pls stay where you are we don't want Chicago thugs
Thanx for this video. Good memories of Boston, rented a car and drove a few of these roads, when we went wrong and couldn't find the right way back. Greets from Holland
+MBR Thanks for watching!
I’m a kid dream to go to Boston...just because one day I saw a coffee shop on google street. I believe it’s close to Cambridge area...and since that Moment I think I fall in love with Boston city.... it’s very expensive for me to get that ticket but I will. Look forward for my dream trip to that coffee shop.
I've been trying to find a way to criticise your videos,but I simply can't.Theyre perfect,just what I was looking for.Thank you
Went to grad school in Boston 2002-2003. Still my favorite city.
Fantastic video! The whole video is very interesting. Thanks for sahre
Thank you for watching!
Simply fantastic...smooth jazz song worked perfectly for inner city drive. You continue to amaze me how you can pick "just the right song" for your projects. Every time I see one of your videos it's like going to school for me.
WOW!! I LOVE HOW YOU DID THIS VIDEO! IT IS THE BEST CITY VIDEO EVER!!
This was done on my birthday. Beutiful drive.
Great video! This was so cool to watch even though I’m from Boston and already seen it
Thank you for watching and the comment.
I visited Cambridge three weeks ago and had the opportunity to finally see Boston and I loved it.
Wicked nice. I grew up in Boston, but moved out here in 92. Missed the Big Dig, really odd to not see the Central Artery. I worked on Broad St a block from it, I could see the cars on it from the front windows in the studio. I'd walk under it to go to the Store 24 in front of the Aquarium, grab a beer and some chips, then sit behind the Aquarium and watch the harbor. This has made me homesick. Very nice, thanks for posting it.
Thanks for watching!
I love Boston! Great video of an area that I usually traverse on foot!
Thank you!
You have a very beautiful city. I am from Belarus and imminent plans to visit your country. And the first thing I'm going to New York. Thank you Freewayjim for what you are doing.
I miss Boston.. I lived in Somerville.. had to leave because it was too expensive.. great place.. Thanks!!!! :)))
Greetings from Canada thank you so much for sharing your awesome video
Thank you for watching!
Thanks, the reason I shoot street tours when I do is because crawling along in heavy traffic does not make for a good video, plus I could not cover as much ground within a reasonable time frame. Also, the things you mentioned about the "essence" of Boston, while interesting in person, do not translate well to video due to a stationery camera. I will continue to do street tours in the lightest traffic possible as I feel it allows people to see more of the city in an uncluttered setting.
Another jazzy piece you've made me go to iTunes to pick up.
I miss this city so much.
The music is beautiful.
Thank you!
Freewayjim Yes, I enjoyed it much. Thank you, Jim :)
Boston, Mass. Great City
I think Columbus Ohio is better
Blake Steenrod I have a couple Columbus OH Videos coming up in November, in no way, shape or form is Columbus Ohio a better or more interesting city than Boston.
I guess I've never been outside of Ohio to the east. So I've never seen Boston. I never herded of Boston other than the Celtics until the Big Dig.
+Blake “NFLweatherlover2014” Steenrod Not even close. Columbus Ohio is not very big and it is plain and lacks character. The infrastructure in Boston is a world apart from Columbus. Not anywhere close to being in a similar category. The infrastructure in Boston is some of the most complex in North America.
Columbus is like the Houston of the Midwest.
excellent jim from the uk
i-love the city and it's a beautiful place love it respect from algeria
Well it's not only a good tour in Boston! It's an amazing city! I think that it's one of the most beautiful i' ve ever seen. Εven if it is a big city with very movement, you can see green everywhere. In each place among roads. Just the perfect city to live. The city that exists in the beauties of nature, where you can enjoy persons and calm.Everywhere trees, beauty, serene life. Even you are alone, in this city you are not alone!!!!
Thanks for the videos.
Omg Boston is huge!!
It's quite small
the city is the same size as San Francisco in area.
It’s not that big... less than a million people. Go to NYC - nearly 9 million people, definitely more of a big city feel.
Boston is very much a city that feels like a town.
Great video, Jim! I can't wait to see Storrow Drive West, as I only get to drive on the Eastbound Side.
Love the music in the beginning so relaxed and chilled
Nice videos sir thank you!!!
Thank you!
I love these vids!
Thank you!
Boston, Mass. Beautiful city, miss it.
You are welcome, I hope you enjoy your visit to America.
I am hoping to visit Boston,MA. Next year to see these remarkable skyscrapers, stores, restaurants, hotels, malls, banks,etc.
I miss Boston, but I'll be back one day!
thanks. My bad. . .I was multitasking while watching this video. lol Love the videos. Aspire me to travel even the more.
Ghost ramps are actually relatively common, more than you would think. In many highly dense areas of the United States, interstates were funded and planned but never built due to community opposition. But by the time they were cancelled, sometimes the interchanges were already partially built. It was more cost-effective to block off and ignore the ghost ramps than to demolish them, and possibly risk damaging the rest of the structure.
My favourite city in the world live in Sydney Australia and been to Boston on 4 different occasions but only in June July not game enough to visit during winter to bloody cold and been from Sydney not to much snow around but it's a long flight over especially if there's a long lay over at LA but all worth it when you finally get there.
excelent video ibeen in boston five times and the video its so real thank you ah and the music good profecional video
We wish we more time to check out Boston. I will next time will check out the streets of Boston. Thanks =)
Ahh great i was waiting to see this continue part of Boston thanks for the upload!! excellent Video, Big Like!!
Thanks, hope you enjoy the NYC videos.
I can see the highway from the old photo, while I don't see it on the new one.
City tours are very interesting especially from an onboard point of view! Nice job!
excellent as always jim
I wish it was that smooth of a drive! Glad you sped up the film because that would've been a 4 hour clip.
Beautiful song choice, my friend.
really nice tour of a city I've never been to.
These videos are awesome.
The I-93 Central Artery elevated roadway was considered to be "The other Green Monster".
I'm from Boston born and raised I currently live in Miami Florida but it's a very beautiful city can't lie
Ok, Thanks fam. A bro like me will. again luv ure videos...
i miss Boston !!!
Nhort station cauzeway Street half time pizzeria beautiful boston city tank you foor vidéo
Only 863 likes, and over 200 thousand viewership, there is something wrong with that, especially form the (Bostonians), they should enjoy a vehicle tour of their home town, it kinda reminds me of New York city streets, pedestrians crossing in front of on coming traffic. Nice video Jim, with a jazzy tune selected for the ride. :-)
Thank you!
I want to visit Boston again...
I love rolling through this city.
чудесный город...моя мечта...nice city)
Thanks, glad you enjoy them!
Thank you! I think the benefits of the Big Dig Project were badly needed but the price tag of $14-15 Billion was utterly ridiculous so wether it was worth it or not is questionable. They (Boston) had to do something though so I guess it's water/money under the bridge.
REALLY NICE VIDEO! THANK YOU VERY MUCH! I SAW ON THIS VIDEO, WHAT I REALLY WANTED TO WATCH, THE CITY !!! =)
Thanks!
Great Video N Great Song.
Because it's like 9AM on a Sunday morning, as stated in the credits. I purposely picked a time to film this where there would be minimal traffic.
I am from Atlantic Canada and I'm considering moving to Boston someday
Nice video! Guessing it was filmed Sunday at dawn with the way the pike looked.
Thank you, a Sunday at 9AM as stated in the closing credits :)
Me too. I've lived all my life in Boston, except now I'm teaching in Turkey.
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!
It's listed in the closing credits "Liquid Soul" by Chris Standring.
I love Boston. Not from there but I love Bean Town..
its a great place to live.. wish i could move back ...very expensive..great city.. enjoy you stay:)))
Lugar maravilhoso que Deus me deu a oportunidade de conhecer.
Obrigado também meu querido irmão Carlos que reside em Boston .
Lugar abençoado.
Thank you!
I love Boston reminded me when i live in Providence RI and going to Brown 1998 to 2000
Thanks, glad you liked it!
Jim, you have a good channel. I like doing these also.😎
The update was definitely more aesthetically pleasing
Agreed, and more functional.
Well done Jim!!
Luv it all!!
Keep it going Jim !!
Im from Boston. Im sorry you had such a bad experience, people are usually very nice. I do agree Bostonians go overboard with the sports
Boston, such a great city
Look at North Carolina's Capitol city.
***** I'm sorry, in no way does Raleigh NC compare to Boston.
I guess I was looking at there schools too much (best ones; Duke, NC State, North Carolina University). Boston College & Hartford are in Boston. I think I should read more about Boston other than the Celtics or the Big dig & read the city life. I friend also told me Boston is great.
Blake Steenrod Boston also has Harvard, Boston University, Northeastern, Berklee College of Music (top music school in the US) and Many more, it's got NC beat there too.
+Freewayjim
Uhh harvard isn't in boston but you're close
You should do a video of route 128/ I-95 especially the northern half.
Boston 4 gtavi!
nice tour,cool song....what ever...!!!!1
Haven't been there since the late 80's, but it was cool as shit back then. It looks even cooler now.
Thanks and yes I do!
5:38 Speaking of T Stations, you should mention that the TD Garden also has the MBTA North Station, also the southern terminus for the Amtrak Downeaster.
6:19 Now that's a long on-ramp! I bet I could drive it at 62MPH. On the other hand, if I were in control, I would finally build this ramp and highway, and actually make it I-89 from here, charging up through Cambridge and Arlington, up to where US-3 would be at the I-95 interchange in Burlington.
Best. City in America 🇺🇸 💙
Thank you! I try to film big cities when traffic is light, heavy traffic does not make for very good video IMO. I have some Boston videos from 2009 that are a little more "active" for lack of a better term.
No prob, thanks for watching!
