The Old State House is an historic building located at the intersection of Washington and State Streets in Boston, Massachusetts, USA.
Located on the Freedom Trail, a cobblestone ring on the traffic island in front of the State House marks the site where five colonists were killed by the British on March 5, 1770 in the event that became known as The Boston Massacre. The colonists killed were Crispus Attucks, Samuel Maverick, James Caldwell, Samuel Gray, and Patrick Carr.
Today, the Old State House sits atop the State Street stop on the MBTA's Orange Line subway line.
