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.
