This week's street of choice, Massachusetts Avenue, is otherwise affectionately referred to as "Mass Ave" by Bostonians. Mass Ave is 16 miles of history and culture. The street runs from Dorchester to Lunenberg. On a journey down Mass Ave, you'll encounter bars, restaurants, historic landmarks, shops, and even colleges.
