Paperback. Etat : New. Print on Demand. This book, published in 1909, provides an historic accounting of the Boston Transit Commission's work. It was assembled from annual reports and other sources, with some details on matters arising in 1908, the year of inspection and public opening of the Washington Street Tunnel. Construction projects described in the book were monumental undertakings and examples of some of the earliest civil engineering feats of their kind in the United States. The extension of the Tremont Street Subway, the first electric street car subway built in the country, the East Boston Tunnel, the first underwater vehicular tunnel in the country, and the Washington Street Tunnel are all meticulously detailed in the book. With insights from Howard Carson, Chief Engineer for the Commission, the book provides an illuminating look at the engineering marvel of these early 20th century innovations.
