Boston Harbor, Washington
Boston Harbor is an unincorporated community in Thurston County, Washington. C. B. Hillman, a Seattle real estate developer, platted the site in 1917 believing that it would be excellent for industrial development and easily reached by the mosquito fleet of steamships plying the Puget Sound. The community is home to the Dofflemyer Point Light, built in 1934 and listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1995.

Famous quotes containing the words boston and/or washington:
“However strongly they resist it, our kids have to learn that as adults we need the companionship and love of other adults. The more direct we are about our needs, the easier it may be for our children to accept those needs. Their jealousy may come from a fear that if we adults love each other we might not have any left for them. We have to let them know that it’s a different kind of love.”
—Ruth Davidson Bell. Ourselves and Our Children, by Boston Women’s Health Book Collective, ch. 3 (1978)
“Have you ever been in love? A doll in Washington Heights once got a fox fur out of me.”
—Jay Dratler, U.S. screenwriter, Samuel Hoffenstein (1889–1947)
