Boylston Street, Newton and Brookline
The suburban Boylston Street is distinct from the one in the city of Boston, and this part of the Worcester Turnpike was given that name in 1841, after a local Brookline family. It begins as the continuation of Route 9 at the Wellesley/Newton line and serves Newton and Brookline before ending at the border of the city of Boston, at the intersection with Brookline Ave. From there, the street (and Route 9) continue east into central Boston as Huntington Avenue.
MBTA Green Line D Branch stations along this route include:

Famous quotes containing the word newton:
“The next Augustan age will dawn on the other side of the Atlantic. There will, perhaps, be a Thucydides at Boston, a Xenophon at New York, and, in time, a Virgil at Mexico, and a Newton at Peru. At last, some curious traveller from Lima will visit England and give a description of the ruins of St Paul’s, like the editions of Balbec and Palmyra.”
—Horace Walpole (1717–1797)
