The architecture in Boston is beautiful. That first shot... damn.
Magic Cool Prince Raekwon Act Other He Knows
Northside Own World Drake Made Top Slicker Think
They forgot to include North End. That part of the city really looks like an old European town!
Many wouldn't notice it before/ Makes you think, doesn't it?
The architecture is just more European. Thats why it is so beautiful
Someday these films of lockdown will be priceless...
lmao ik they'll be making horror movies 40 years from now with these
That is If these Aren’t The End Times .. We Haven’t even Hit The 2nd Wave Of this virus.. not even the Peak
it's not a lockdown, it's "shelter-in-place".
believe me, Some day you will see this as "The GOOD Old days" its going to get MUCH Worse...
History in the making
boston looks like 1800s America and i love it
This is what happens in one of the most educated and beautiful cities in America! 👏🏼❤️
And most expensive
A-Train Travels true 😪
Where they got Sick from the TV. That is Not Educated, it is Retarded. Just like rat INFESTED YUPPIE Disgusting Boston.
@Robert Jordan that's not nice man. that might effected on some people who lived there and I'm one of them. just next time be nice man please and thank you
Robert Jordan Rat infested? You mean New York?
Still a beautiful city.
This is basically footage from any apocalypse movie, except it's real life
Exactly. I'm on dating site asking woman what they used to do before the coronavirus pandemic. I sound like a character from walking dead
@@smoothgent1011 Oh, my, wow.
Reminds me of those movies where some mysterious calamity removed all the people, except the few main characters who wake up one morning to find there's no one else around. Spooky!
yeah dude

In future 100 years from now till the world ends people would be viewing this footage and thinking how we acted at times like these due to COVID-19. Wish we had something like this to view for how our ancestors acted... Anyone reading this very comment in future know that we went through this and we survived and come out stronger as a result. :) ;)
Boston is beautiful
Boston is absolutely stunning, I need to go back!
@ReturnoftheBrotha It's an accurate comparison, both cities have been highly gentrified(NYC more-so) and are two of the most expensive cities in the US
@ReturnoftheBrotha The top city? Buddy we don't give a fuck about "NYC acceptance" get off your high horse, most people here are pretty neutral to NYC, and if not then many dislike it. We don't give a shit about acceptance from NYC, while NYC ranks higher in population and GDP, we prefer being a smaller metro area. Most Bostonians hate the idea of have giant towering skyscrapers and being as big as NYC. Connecticut is clearly NOT in the Boston metro area for obvious geographic reasons. The reason why Bostonians/New Englanders get frustrated with CT is because it is technically in New England, but many are NY sports fans. It's pearly about sports, and really not to be taken seriously.
It seems you're basing the cities strictly by city population and not by other metrics. NYC is in a tier of its own for population, no American city compares. Houston may be larger than Boston in population, but it's also 600 sq. miles while Boston is only 48 sq miles of land. Both have comparable metro areas. Economically Philly and Houston don't really compare to Boston, according to the GFCI(the most reliable source for ranking of financial centres, and is used by the UN and World Bank) Boston is the 18th financial centre in the world, while Houston or Philly are not top 100. The only other US cities that make it into the top 100 are NYC(obviously first in the world), SF, LA, and DC.
Trust me, Bostonians DO NOT want to be like NYC, in fact we pride ourselves on not being like NYC. OP was simply just comparing how both NYC and Boston have been highly gentrified in recent decades, which is very true. SF would probably be a worse comparison in this predicament because it has been more gentrified than both of the two.
@ReturnoftheBrotha Boston's population is small because it has small city borders. It's only 48 square miles of land, while most major cities in the US are 300-600. Boston is still the 6th largest statistical region area in the country, and is the 18th largest financial hub in the world. You're really full of yourself with the New York talk. Bostonians do not want to be like New York, nor do we want to rival with them. In fact I hear New Yorkers talk shit about Boston more often than Bostonians. Your talk about "Boston always want to be rivals with New York" just shows how sheltered you are. No Celtics fan wants to be rivals with the knicks, nor could that team ever compare to the Celtics, currently or historically. Honestly your lack of knowledge about Boston takes away your legitimacy in this argument. Boston is famous because it is where the USA started, and was the largest metro area in the colonial days, and is still one of the largest financial centers and metro areas in the US, while also leading the country in industries like biotech, education, and medicine. Your jabbering about Connecticut is irrelevent. Western Connecticut generally goes for New York teams, while eastern Connecticut goes for Boston/New England teams because of basic geographic reasons, it ends there. Your pretentiousness is really unnecessary, and quite frankly nativist bullshit. I seldom hear people in Massachusetts talk about New York, let alone compare ourselves to you. We didn't know your governor either, and we really don't give a shit about you guys unless it comes to sports. I could go talk about how Massachusetts has the best HDI, education system, colleges, healthcare system etc. but it's pretentious and honestly petty. Just stop comparing Boston to New York. In terms of tiers or categories, Boston is in a tier of its own. We're the start of this nation and have history that no other city in the country has. Just like it was shown in this video, Boston obtains a style and heritage of this nations history that no other city has, not even New York. And that last part is honestly just silly. Build a new city in Maine? It would take centuries to build a metropolitan area the size of Boston, that also serves as one of the largest financial hubs in the world, and leads multiple industries in the country.
@ReturnoftheBrotha seriously, we don't care about ny that much... btw i know people from greenwich and stamford who identify as "New Englanders" and route for boston teams. I have family in Bridgeport that routes for New England/Boston teams too. Politically CT is more in tune with Mass as well because it is a small state that puts more importance on local government, which is a big reason why New England states are grouped together.
I do live in a beautiful city..
Thank you so much for posting this. This is an historic document.
Future Generations will be so fascinated by what we have experienced

@@ressouchebenoit8594 Ian sorry you o are seeing Boston like this it is an historically beautiful city, not at glamorous as Paris but it's light that shines is that of democracy won. Like Parisians, Americans were noted for staying tall for the ideas of Rousseau, Adams, Jefferson and Locke

Amazing how gorgeous the streets look when they aren't rammed with cars, never seen Boston before but it looks beautiful
Oohbaby, It's very old and elegant.
Probably the only time I've enjoyed being in that city. I love it without all that traffic, cyclists, trash, and people everywhere.
It's so eerie to see how empty the City has become... especially the shot of Faneuil Hall.
So sad
@@ATrainTravels But strangely beautiful in a way.
CurlyFro i was thinking the same thing. Quincy Market and Faneuil Hall are usually teaming with people!
Usually the place is packed af
Boston is a gorgeous City

Wow at 0:10 they have a whole building covered with a giant mask. That's some serious quarantine.
(Just trying to lighten the mood).
It's incredible that the people are so much aware and conscious - you are heros.
Joel Camara Boston is a nice city, Chicago is trash.
Knightfall I live in Detroit and I can confirm that Detroit is worse than both of those cities. By a lot
Elon Tusk Detroit oh man stay safe with everything going on
Joel Camara I was in Boston from 1980 until 2018. Boston is a beautiful city, lots of history.
Joel Camara yeah it was a sweet spot for sure. I had to move in 2018. It got to expensive and way to congested with cars and college punks. Yeah those days of old Boston are long gone.
So beautiful...humans doing their part and staying home. This is cooperation in display.
I’m from Boston and this is creepy. All the major city’s are like this. Stay safe people it’s not worth getting sick
I'm in Australia and watching this on youtube is nuts. We haven't gone into full lockdown yet, but a lot of us are staying at home anyway. Its crazy to see NY with empty streets also. Hope things get better over there soon. Although if you got a fast car and with empty streets...….
Yeah but trump wants you all in church packed like sardines in by Easter
the cloudy/foggy weather in the beginning makes it look even more creepy.
@@lupevaldez8456 The Church is in your heart.

Welcome to Boston, where even during a pandemic, traffic still doesn't completely disappear
Boston was an amazing city when I went there, hope I get to go again! The people were very friendly too.
Joel Camara Shut up Yankees fan
@@veilofthevale974 Are u all right? Who said anything about the 27 time World Series Champion New York Yankees!!! Alex Cora, a fraud!!!
@Joel Camara You're not slick with the obvious burner accounts. What a coincidence that 3 accounts reply to the same guy at the same exact time on a comment you need to go scrolling for.
Joel Camara no it was sunny and warm out today. Also if you really do live in New York it has very similar weather to Boston. Why do you take the time to capitalize every letter of the first word? It makes you look illiterate.
Joel Camara Wow looks like I really made you mad🤣 Why are you so angry to the extent you need to make burner accounts and respond 30 times?😭 Are you mad Massachusetts has the best HDI in the US, best public education system in the US, best healthcare system in the US, highest GDP per capita in the US, and best colleges and hospitals in the US? Rent? We don’t worry about that here, we’re a rich state. You just can’t afford to live here, maybe that’s why you’re so angry.
very beautiful city of Boston
American cities should take note. This is how a city should look.
Then how is it any different from a suburb
True.
This is an american city lol
Best city in the world
@@tylercoulombe4728 I meant other American cities lol. Boston is a lot much different from your typical American city, especially on the west coast/sunbelt.
Wass up with that music tho ! We already freakin scared bruh!

Thank you...glad that everyone seems to be doing what we should be doing for now...it!ll get better soon...🙏🏻
Sorry,but it's only going to get worse!
My eyes teared up when I saw Faneuil Hall. That place is always buzzing. The music is fitting, it's so quiet that you can hear a heartbeat but at the same time, you can hear a heartbeat. We are still here!
Man those old homes are beautiful. I hope I can visit the East coast someday to see all the American history! Stay strong everyone
WOOOORST TIME EVER FOR BURGLARS :) ... everybody home.
LOL F*** 'em
Love this video! Couldn’t have found a better soundtrack... speaks volumes, and tells the whole story! There’s an almost spooky beauty and silence. Once again I’m floored. Great, great work you’ve done here! Can’t get enough!
Love my city Boston 🌇💖 my hometown born and raised 😘
I feel for all the good people thinking about all of the people in this situation. For the love of God please give a helping hand to anyone who needs it, but also be wary of the evil people. Praying for humanity, praying for me & you. Have a safe day. God bless.
This is the moment to realize what we are doing in this world ?
In the mean time while thousand people still dying the skys get cleaner and better !!
Love it!!
Even the wildlife seems happier!
I see birds dancing in the streets
You sound like Snow White
4:27 Boston-Boston! You now know you're really old when you can remember Boston-Boston.
These videos are priceless. View of the world without the anxiety inducing congestion of people and bad drivers. If only it would always be so!
To see Boston like this
Love the music, peace calm tranquillity, cyysodelic, space,...
Imagine being Charlton Heston now looking at the Statue of Liberty, going - 'DAMN U.. DAMN U ALL TO HELL !'
He starred in the Omega Man back in 1971. It was about a world where people are wiped out by a plague. The opening scene is where he is driving a red convertible through deserted downtown LA. streets carrying an Assault Rifle. Cool movie.
Looks like an episode of "life after people" day 1
The music only addd to the atmosphere
Solo filmmakers: time to shine
I hate towns!
I love Nature!
Nice misic😌💗
I never seen Beacon street so empty!!!!feels unreal...the bright side, The Pike looks good.
Yeah, I'm remembering how it was after the Marathon bombing during the manhunt, so surreal.
Soldier f Boston looks really similar to nyc
you saw now
@@Andy-hz2ef That's because it is. :) Basically, Boston is NYC on smaller scale but with a much more European feel and charm. (And for as much as they hate to admit it, Bostonians and New Yorkers are pretty much the same, too. Love 'em both!)
@@LizInTheB Bostonians are much different from New Yorkers fym bro. Cities really ain't the same either, NYC is all on a grid and destroyed all of it's history
Well at least ONE city is following the rules! Where I live, everyone is still out bustling around. Everything around here is closed...stores, businesses, theaters, museums, etc......but it isn't stopping people from driving around and walking downtown in large groups. I wish my city would take it more seriously. It's going to get really bad. I mean we're an hour outside of Philly...c'mon people wake up!!!
Let them die, don't worry about them iZombies iFools iMorons.
Try new Hampshire Manchester you'd never know there was a problem
San Francisco is doing a good job as well. And yes I live here.
Massachusetts has one of the best public education systems in America.
People know exactly what is going on and how vital it is to follow the rules

Great. It s relaxing
WOW !!! looks lovely city but eerily empty at the moment. With love from Scotland
I have photos and video from top of hub and Longfellow bridge taken over the past 11 years. Shows a city unheated in winter, as it has been for 20 years this coming September. Bello, a high school classmate, never had time as Globe city editor to even look at reality. QED. Look what it takes.... I am reminded of Globe’s not coming to the perp walk with Whitey and redhead in February 2001. The biggest gift to me from then until 2010 was Globe’s and Herald’s pretense that Whitey was on the lam for almost 10 years. I never thanked the Globe for that gift. Thanks!
Thank you for this amazing video!! What a beautiful city!!
Nice video 👌

why does the music have to be sooooo damn scary? Damnnnnnnnn!
Im not the uploader, but if i had to guess... its because the footage shows what is not the norm for the places shown and drives the messege on how something like corona virus can have an immediate impact on society. Just my guess though dood

Hi from your northern neighbor, New Hampshire. Glad to see y'all listen to instructions. We don't- it's traffic as usual. Very bizarre as I believed people staying home meant PEOPLE STAY HOME!
So when are they gonna build the canals?
@Jerry Bonanza They aren't lying. Boston left the building 30 years ago. No one has seen it since. There's a bunch of wannabes and yuppies left there, that's it. This kid JAMES OMALLEY is like 29 years old. He knows NOTHING.
