Present
The eastern entrance closest to the Hynes Convention Center (on Boylston Street) is usually closed (except on Patriot's Day, to handle the spectators from the Boston Marathon). People wishing to reach the Hynes Convention Center or the Prudential Center must exit westward onto Massachusetts Avenue and walk back to Boylston Street.

Famous quotes containing the word present:
“I will venture to affirm, that the three seasons wherein our corn has miscarried did no more contribute to our present misery, than one spoonful of water thrown upon a rat already drowned would contribute to his death; and that the present plentiful harvest, although it should be followed by a dozen ensuing, would no more restore us, than it would the rat aforesaid to put him near the fire, which might indeed warm his fur-coat, but never bring him back to life.”
—Jonathan Swift (1667–1745)
“I am present at the sowing of the seed of the world. With a geometry of sunbeams, the soul lays the foundations of nature.”
—Ralph Waldo Emerson (1803–1882)
“The present is never poetic as it serves necessity, necessity, however, is prosaic.”
—Franz Grillparzer (1791–1872)
