A friend told me about this place. I wasn’t expecting much, but generally like history, so my wife and I visited. We planned to spend 30 minutes.
We ended up spending an hour and a half and only left because we had a reservation. I was super impressed with this museum, and will go back next time I’m in Boston. This little museum is a gem.
WEM = gem!

Incredible memorial of the tens of thousands of poor who were betrayed by their city under the guise or urban renewal.
Visceral, emotional, but also hopeful as the museum refuses to allow the memories fade

I highly highly recommend this museum. The history of the West End must be kept alive, especially if we wish to prevent such destruction from happening again. It's a small space, but theres plenty to look at and engage with. I would recommend they add more seating(I know its a small space but its still possible imo). Keep in mind that admission is now 12 dollars or so. New visitors can't come in within the last 30 minutes of closing.

Fun Fact, Lomasney Way was named after Boston Politician Martin Lomasney who is attributed with saying: "Don't write when you can talk; don't talk when you can nod; don't nod when you can wink."

On a stormy afternoon, the curator gave us access to the museum early and was on hand to provide really great, detailed answers to our questions. The space is not large but gives a detailed history of this little known Boston neighborhood. A must for lovers of city planning, architecture and urban development.
