The area
Address
Neighborhood: Back Bay
Wander around this quintessential neighborhood in the heart of Boston for high-end shops, restaurants, and the feeling of city bustle. Its most identifiable skyscrapers, the Prudential Center and John Hancock Tower, are highlights of the city skyline. Visit Newbury street to explore unique and trendy boutiques – as well as every other kind of store imaginable – all housed in beautiful brownstone buildings. In nice weather, restaurant patio seating is packed with Bostonians and tourists alike soaking up the sunshine and enjoying the food. Commonwealth Ave offers a beautiful stroll down residential tree-lined streets. Keep walking towards the Charles River and enjoy a beautiful view by the water. In warmer months, people run and bike on paths running along the esplanade, and sail and kayak on the Charles River. Boylston street, also full of shops, bars, and restaurants, is the finish line of the Boston Marathon. Head towards Copley Square and check out the Boston Public Library, which is particularly beautiful from the Dartmouth street entrance.
How to get there

In a walking tour of the city, we stopped by the memorial to pay our respects to the victims and the survivors of the bombing.

The Memorials to the causalities of the 2013 Boston Marathon have now been completed.
One (for Krystle Campbell) is situated opposite the Boston Public Library on Boylston Street. The other is about 210 yards further along the road. Opposite the First Republic Bank.
They are not marked and most people walk past them not realising that they are there.
Nice, tasteful, respectful and sad.
Glad they are finished and I believe have the victims families blessings.
Glad to have paid my respects during our short visit to Boston to the three people who died that day and to the 264 who were injured.

While it is finished, as of August the memorial hadn't been dedicated yet. The memorial is simple yet tasteful.....3 pillars, one for each person that died.
What surprised me, is how long it has taken them to get this done.
