Additional information
The Innovation Trail lets everyone experience four centuries of world-changing breakthroughs from Boston. The first clinical trial. The invention of the telephone. The instant camera. Getting Apollo spacecraft to the moon. The first surgery under anesthesia. The Innovation Trail shows how gaining our independence as a nation after the Revolution was just the beginning. What happened in Boston after America became an independent nation is equally as astounding.
