view is a couple of blocks from the bus stop I use to get to work.</p><p>Yeah, well, nepotism in political circles has long and storied history here in Massachusetts. The famous John Winthrop, first Governor of the Massachusetts Bay Colony (the not-Puritan early colonists) had the legislature set up his son with the first commercial blast furnace in North America.</p> <p>Which, unfortunately, went bankrupt a few years later. But everything worked out for the young man because he skedaddled to Connecticut and set up a successful blast furnace there.</p> <p>The grist mill he also set up there is regarded by many scholars as the first monopoly in America. So crony Capitalism might be bad, but it's certainly nothing new.</p><p>I stepped into what I surmised was the oven to grab a picture of the pretty incredible 'dry stone' masonry, still solid after four hundred years.</p> <p>No need for Mending Wall, whatever Robert Frost says. </p><p>Here's the view down the hill.</p> <p>The granite plaque is affixed to the front of the pillars visible at the bottom.</p><p>This is the view up the hill. For some reason, the grade seems a lot scarier at the bottom looking up than at the top looking down.</p> <p>Whether we have the first railway or not, we have the first railway passenger fatality.<br /> Oddly enough, it wasn't the risky exercise of transporting huge stone blocks on rickety rails that caused the death. The railway had become a tourist attraction, so when they weren't moving stone they carried folks up and down the hill for fun--and profit.</p><p>Granite Ave. in Milton, so called for the obvious reason that it's built almost exactly where the railway had run (or, I think, some few feet or yards to the East)</p><p>Up the hill near which bottom I reside lies the Granite Railway.</p> <p>It was built in 1826 to move granite from the quarry. It was supposedly high-quality granite, but the real reason it was used not just in local projects but as far away as Baltimore and Washington, D.C. was because of the efficiency of transport.</p> <p>There's a little bit of controversy about that 'First Railway' claim, but--like the internet--if it's carved in stone, it must be true, right?</p> <p>(I was fiddling with the filters to make the inscription more readable and it came out like that.)</p> http://jameseg.newsvine.com/_news/2012/10/09/14317944-plans-to-turn-muhammad-ali-boyhood-home-into-museumhttp://jameseg.newsvine.com/_news/2012/10/09/14317944-plans-to-turn-muhammad-ali-boyhood-home-into-museumhistorymuseummuhammad-alicassius-clayboyhood-homecommentid-historyplans-to-turn-muhammad-ali-boyhood-home-into-museumTue, 9 Oct 2012 14:54:40 +0000http://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/posthttp://activitystrea.ms/schema/1.0/bookmark
