North End III


The North End is also home to one of Boston's five original hills: Copp's Hill.  The hill
was named after a shoemaker named William Copp. After the hill became a burial
ground though, the hill had two names: its office name, Copps Hill and its popular
name, Corpse Hill. In the maps below, you can see the mispelling.
