Roxbury is a dissolved municipality and a currently officially recognized neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.
Roxbury is one of 21 official neighborhoods of Boston, used by the city for neighborhood services coordination. The city asserts that it "serves as the heart of Black culture in Boston."
Roxbury was one of the first towns founded in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630, and became a city in 1846 until annexed to Boston on January 5, 1868. The original town of Roxbury once included the current Boston neighborhoods of Jamaica Plain, Roslindale, West Roxbury, the South End and much of Back Bay. Roxbury now generally ends at Hammond Street, Davenport Street to the east, and East Lenox Street/Melnea Cass Boulevard to the south.
The original boundaries of the Town of Roxbury can be found in Drake's History of Roxbury and its noted Personages. Those boundaries include the Christian Science Center, the Prudential Center (built on the old Roxbury Railroad Yards) and everything south and east of the Muddy River including Symphony Hall, Northeastern University, Boston Latin School, John D. O'Bryant School of Mathematics & Science, Y.M.C.A., Harvard Medical School and many hospitals and schools in the area. This side of the Muddy River is Roxbury, the other side is Brookline and Boston. Franklin Park, once entirely within Roxbury when Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury and Roslindale were villages within the town of Roxbury until 1854, has been divided with the line between Jamaica Plain and Roxbury located in the vicinity of Peter Parley Road on Walnut Avenue, through the park to Columbia Road. Here, Walnut Avenue changes its name to Sigourney Street, indicating the area is now Jamaica Plain. One side of Columbia Road is Roxbury, the other Dorchester. Melnea Cass Boulevard is located approximately over the Roxbury Canal that brought boats into Roxbury, bypassing the busy port of Boston in the 1830s.
"Massachusetts" is a song by the Bee Gees, released in 1967. Written by Barry, Robin & Maurice Gibb. Robin Gibb sang lead vocals on this song and it would become one of his staple songs to perform during concerts on both Bee Gees and his solo concerts. It later appeared on their 1968 album, Horizontal.
The song was written in the Regis Hotel, New York City during a tour of the United States. The song was intended as an antithesis to flower power anthems of the time such as "Let's Go to San Francisco" and "San Francisco (Be Sure to Wear Flowers in Your Hair)" in that the protagonist had been to San Francisco to join the hippies but was now homesick. The idea of the lights having gone out in Massachusetts was to suggest that everyone had gone to San Francisco.
It is the first album to not feature long time lead guitarist Neil Boshart and first to include new guitarist Paul-Marc Rousseau.
Background and recording
Silverstein announced they had signed with Hopeless on November 15, 2010. Vocalist Shane Told said the band have been "huge fans of the label since their inception". Hopeless released the band's Rescue (2011) album in April 2011 and Short Songs (2012) album in February 2012. In mid-to-late August, the band went on the Short Songs, Short Tour; the last tour they would go on before starting to work on a new album. In late September, the band announced that guitarist Neil Boshart hasn't been in the band for the preceding month and was replaced by Paul Marc Rousseau, who has previously worked for the band.This Is How the Wind Shifts was recorded at Sundown Studios in Guelph, Ontario, Canada with producer Jordan Valeriote. Valeriote also engineered and mixed the album. It was mastered by Troy Glessener at Spectre Mastering.
In touring the neighborhood, Bob introduces the nine-unit Roxbury affordable housing project.

I Drove Through The Worst Parts Of Boston. This Is What I Saw.
Man parts of south Boston are ROUGH!
For this episode of dashboard tours, I took i93 south from New Hampshire into the Boston area. I wanted to visit the worst area of Boston I could find. It wasn’t hard - the internet was full of information about two distinct parts of south Boston that are notorious for crime and blight and poverty - Mattapan and Roxbury. So that’s where I would go. It was a glorious sunny late winter day on Monday, March 22, 2021 at noon.
We’re going to begin on Blue Hill Avenue in Mattapan and drive around that area for a while and then take Blue Hill back up into Roxbury and see what it’s like up there. Here’s the exact route I’ll take. If you’re from Massachusetts, you’ve heard of these areas, but you might not have seen them yet.

Walking the Most Dangerous Part of Boston: Intersection of Mass Ave and Melnia Cass
I walked Mass and Cass otherwise known as the intersection of Massachusetts Avenue and Melnea Cass. This was definitely one of my harder walks as there were so many people to keep watch out for, but nobody interacted with me that was dangerous. There was some nice people I met after the walk actually and we talked about the situation, and one guy told me how it is only getting worse. I definitely wanted to record more into the tent city area, but I felt for my safety, this was the best option to stay on the main streets. I think I may come back on my bike with a go-pro to get some more intense footage, so stay tuned. Thank you and enjoy the video. Hopefully, there is something done about this place sooner than later.

Here’s the exact route I’ll take. If you’re from Massachusetts, you’ve heard of these areas, but you might not have seen them yet.
I didn’t find these areas overly dangerous during the day, but it’s clear that at night, they can be really rough. Home prices in these parts of town are high - close to $450k. Many are older, multi unit row homes in disrepair. Much of the area along the main thoroughfare are sketch and traversed by people who look like they should be at work, but probably don’t have jobs.
Here’s the rest of south Boston’s worst areas.

Roxbury is a dissolved municipality and a currently officially recognized neighborhood of Boston, Massachusetts, U.S.
Roxbury is one of 21 official neighborhoods of Boston, used by the city for neighborhood services coordination. The city asserts that it "serves as the heart of Black culture in Boston."
Roxbury was one of the first towns founded in the Massachusetts Bay Colony in 1630, and became a city in 1846 until annexed to Boston on January 5, 1868. The original town of Roxbury once included the current Boston neighborhoods of Jamaica Plain, Roslindale, West Roxbury, the South End and much of Back Bay. Roxbury now generally ends at Hammond Street, Davenport Street to the east, and East Lenox Street/Melnea Cass Boulevard to the south.
The original boundaries of the Town of Roxbury can be found in Drake's History of Roxbury and its noted Personages. Those boundaries include the Christian Science Center, the Prudential Center (built on the old Roxbury Railroad Yards) and everything south and east of the Muddy River including Symphony Hall, Northeastern University, Boston Latin School, John D. O'Bryant School of Mathematics & Science, Y.M.C.A., Harvard Medical School and many hospitals and schools in the area. This side of the Muddy River is Roxbury, the other side is Brookline and Boston. Franklin Park, once entirely within Roxbury when Jamaica Plain, West Roxbury and Roslindale were villages within the town of Roxbury until 1854, has been divided with the line between Jamaica Plain and Roxbury located in the vicinity of Peter Parley Road on Walnut Avenue, through the park to Columbia Road. Here, Walnut Avenue changes its name to Sigourney Street, indicating the area is now Jamaica Plain. One side of Columbia Road is Roxbury, the other Dorchester. Melnea Cass Boulevard is located approximately over the Roxbury Canal that brought boats into Roxbury, bypassing the busy port of Boston in the 1830s.
