Wait, are you saying that the historical site of the Boston Tea Party is now a highway? What’s wrong with you Americans? The peer where that ship was docked could have been such an epic tourist attraction, but I guess you need roads too. Cars go brrr…
Apparently, the true location isn't known anyways. And there's a museum located nearby dedicated to it.

If I even happen to visit Boston, that museum will be one of the locations I absolutely have to visit. Now I just need to come up with a reason to fly over the ocean.
Definitely worth a trip if you like history. The Freedom trail connects the historical landmarks plus there's tons of tours, museums, & educational experiences.
If you ever do a US trip Boston is a good choice.
