MASSACHUSETTS SCENIC PHOTOGRAPHS
MASSACHUSETTS CITY & TOWN HALLS
I have been involved with town governments in one capacity or another since 1989, and have worked in 3 different Town Halls since 1995. Having had the ability to tour the state has been fascinating and visiting every city and town has been a great experience. In addition to my interests in fire apparatus and stations, I have a special interest in the buildings that host the operations of all 351 municipalities in the Commonwealth. While my photography skills probably won't be the subject of a Museum of Fine Arts exhibit, here you will be able to view the many unique buildings where government happens in this state. The great Tip O'Neil once said that all politics is local, so here is where local politics reside!
(Editor's Note: These are best viewed on a 17" or larger screen)
As of November 6, 2005, I visited ALL 351 of the cities and towns in the Commonwealth
to take the photos you find here. In addition, every fire station and most every piece
of fire apparatus in Rhode Island is featured here as well.
I hope you enjoy the site, and by all means please feel free to drop an
e-mail my way if you spot an error, omission, want to set up a photo shoot
of your department's vehicles, or simply want to say hello.
MassFireTrucks.Com is based in Bellingham, MA and is a collection of photos of fire apparatus, ambulances and
Fire Stations of all types from across Massachusetts, Rhode Island, and beyond! It is always a work
in progress as vehicles are added and replaced all the time. This site will make the effort to keep updated
on any fleet changes.
Unless otherwise noted on the photo, all photos were photographed by me, Michael Boynton, and for the most
part have been collected since the summer of 2003. Thank you for visiting and check back often!
A huge thank you goes out to all the firefighters, fire officers and fire chiefs who have been so cooperative
and accommodating in making all these vehicles available to be photographed. And, most importantly, I want
to thank my wife Donna who has not only supported this hobby, but has accompanied me on (or is that endured)
most of these picture expeditions. You are the best!!
