We are also home to the leading NPR station WBUR<\/a>.<\/p>\n Boston<\/a> is rich in history, old-world charm, and modern vitality. Home to more than 60 colleges and universities, it is an intellectual and cultural center diverse in its people and stimulating in its opportunities, yet relaxed and accessible. Boston is the largest city in New England and the site of many significant events in early American Colonial and Revolutionary history. Much of that early flavor remains today in its cobbled streets, in its historic landmarks that bring alive Paul Revere’s ride and the Boston Tea Party, and in the Federalist row houses on Beacon Hill. A historic seaport that grew to prominence in the days of the China trade and the whaling industry, the City maintains a thriving and picturesque waterfront.<\/p>\n Boston is also a major multicultural center. In addition to the historic minority communities, many of the New American communities are located within easy distance of the BUSM campus, and are represented through such programs as the Museum of African American History<\/a> and Black Heritage Trail<\/a>, and the Mayor’s Office of New Bostonians<\/a>, among many others. Boston is also taking a lead in making the city a greener, more pedestrian and cyclist-friendly city through the Crossroads Initiative<\/a>.<\/p>\n![\"Orange](\"\/gms\/files\/2013\/11\/Orange-Band-Lower-Section.jpg\" "\\"Orange")
