City Square

In 1629, Thomas Graves, laid out Charlestown’s streets which centered around Market Square. On April 18, 1775, Paul Revere,
on the night of his famous ride rowed to Charlestown from Boston. The ride began in City Square using a horse borrowed from
Deacon John Larkin. After the Battle of Bunker Hill and the cannon fire that burnt Charlestown, Market Square was rebuilt as
Charlestown Square. In 1848, Charlestown became a city and Charlestown Square was renamed City Square.
