Book excerpt: This thesis explores the impact of the Boston & Maine Railroad on the development of the West End neighborhood in Malden, Massachusetts. Specifically, I will examine the time-period between the opening of the Boston & Maine Railroad station in Malden in 1845 and the transformation of the West End into a railroad suburb during the final two decades of the nineteenth century. Additionally, I consider the relationship between suburban residential development and the park and nature conservation movements.
