Cannons aimed at Boston.

Is this an attempt to derail Boston’s current sports dominance???
Perhaps a neocon final solution?
Or maybe they are decommissioned WW II era cannons that have been in place for years, and its just funny that they are pointed at the city?

Old Safety Shoes sign in the Boston Navy Yard.
Yes that’s the USS Constitution in the background.

Note: if you plan on taking commercial photos or just a lot of photos of things people don’t normally take photos of in the Navy Yard it would be best to let them know beforehand. I was questioned for 15 minutes after taking photos near the main gate. It’s still technically a military instillation so they would appreciate a little heads up before hand.
