Look familiar? 👀 This is Boston’s iconic Custom House Tower. 🚁

Originally constructed in the late 1830s in Greek Revival style, the Custom House was once the beating heart of Boston’s maritime economy—collecting import duties and housing federal inspectors.

Thanks to a special exemption from local building codes, it stood taller than any other structure in the city for over 30 years, dominating the Boston skyline long before the skyscrapers arrived.

📍 See it from the sky on our Helicopter Tour Boston—where every landmark tells a story.
