FINANCIAL DISTRICT. A Boston social and commercial centerpiece since 1742, Faneuil Hall was originally established as a market for merchants, fishermen and vendors. It later hosted inspirational appearances by prominent figures like Samuel Adams and George Washington, which earned it the nickname "Cradle of Liberty." In the 1970s, a major renovation to the aging structure transformed it into one of America's premiere urban marketplaces. Now, it boasts more than 50 shops, 14 restaurants, and 40 food stalls. NB Some folks (and publications) refer to the retail component as Quincy Market.

Featuring a number of dramatic elevation changes, this well-manicured course is also dissected by the Merrimack River. The wide fairways are relatively hilly, and the oversized greens are undulating and can provide some interesting putts. Along with a number of bunkers, the river and Trull Brook guard several of the greens, requiring accurate approach shots to avoid the trouble.
