Perfect example of why in the end it's a waste of time to try to lock in the ethnic identity of any neighborhood.

Neighborhoods change, demographics change, people come and people go - we're not living in the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum but a living city.

Thanks for playing, folks! This photo was taken at Beach and Oxford Streets on March 1, 1901.
