Hyde Park’s #1 Home Cleaning & Maid Service

HYDE PARK’S MOST TRUSTED HOUSE CLEANING REFERRAL AGENCY

Also known as a “Small Town in the City,” Hyde Park is one of the most individualistic neighborhoods in all of Boston, even though it is mere moments away from the capital’s downtown. Hyde Park has a suburban vibe that has called to those tired of industry and skyscrapers to its residential streets lined with a mishmash of architectural styles. There is a lot to see in Hyde Park for both locals and visitors alike. 

Let’s have a look at all the neighborhood of Hyde Park has to offer. 

The People and Places of Hyde Park

For well over a century, the population of Hyde Park was mainly immigrants of European heritage, including a large number of Polish, Italian, and Irish. To this day, many residents are foreign-born and non-citizens. However, in recent years, the demographics have shifted greatly. The 2010 census reported that 49 percent of the population was Black or African American; 33 percent was Non-Hispanic White, and almost 20 percent was Hispanic. 

Interestingly, the largest age group is 39-54. There are also many families with children in Hyde Park. In fact, as of 2010, there were around 7,000 school-aged children, making it one of the biggest populations of children in the Boston area. Because of this, there are several schools, including three elementary and middle schools, a few charter schools, a high school, private schools, and even Boston Baptist College on Fairmount Hill. 

Because of how Hyde Park transitioned from agricultural to semi-industrial, you can find dozens of historical buildings in a wide array of architectural styles. The central business district between Logan Square and Cleary Square has several examples, including the municipal building that was built in 1912. The Most Precious Blood Church built-in 1885 has a stunning Gothic appeal, while other churches have the Gothic Revival look. There are also theaters and warehouses blending in with residential zones full of Victorian and Italianate architecture. 

The History of Hyde Park

Hyde Park has humble beginnings. A businessman named Henry Grew took the family on a vacation in 1845 and liked the area he visited so much he decided to buy several hundred acres worth of land. Over the next few years, a company bought land, built houses, and even set up a stop along with the Boston and Providence Railroad. However, Grew is not considered the founder of Hyde Park. That title belongs to Alpheus Perley Blake, an organizer of the Fairmount Land Company and the Twenty Associates. These businessmen developed settlements that merged. 

Aside from all this history about how Hyde Park began, here is some interesting trivia for you. During the late 19th century, Hyde Park was where people went for taxidermy. A man named Frank Blake Webster, an ornithological publisher founded the Museum and Naturalist’s Supply Depot, where people could learn how to mount elk, deer, and moose heads. 

At the start of the 20th century, Hyde Park was also known for harness racing. On the grounds of Camp Meigs was the Readville Trotting Park, which used to draw thousands of fans. Later, the track became famous for auto races. Unfortunately, it closed in 1937 and later transformed into a warehouse and distribution center.

When you visit Hyde Park today, you will see the remnants of its history along with modern growth. The area is split into four areas: Hype Park, West Street/River Street, Fairmount Hill, and Readville. There are two main stations—Hyde Park and Fairmount—for easy transportation. Around these stations, you can find some stores and restaurants that hint to the diversity of the neighborhood, including Rincon Caribeno, Only One Jamaican, Farah’s Cafe, Little Haiti International Cuisine, and Ron’s Gourmet Ice Cream and Twentieth Century Bowling Alley. 

There are also plenty of green spaces around Hyde Park to visit, such as the expansive Stony Brook Park and Reservation, which has trails that lead to a dozen other amazing spots, like the Smith Pond Playground, Fairview Cemetery, and McGann Park. Altogether, the Stony Brook Reservation has over 400 acres and 10 miles of trails. Make sure you bring some comfortable shoes if you decide to tackle the trails! Up in the West Street/River Street area, you can also find Ross Playground and Sherrin Woods. Golfers will also love the George Wright Golf Course. 

There is also the grounds around the Hyde Park Library, which are covered in bronze plaques. You can learn a lot about the history and culture of the neighborhood—aside from checking out books, of course. Another place you don’t want to miss is the Riverside Theater Works. Aside from having a 156-seat opera house, you can enjoy musical theater lessons here too.
