Long Description:
This mark is located at the northwest corner of Herald St and Harrison Ave in the Chinatown district of Boston, just south of the MassPike. The mark is embedded in the granite curb approximately halfway between the endpoints of the crosswalk across Harrison Ave.

The "2" on the stamping on the mark has pretty much worn away, but you can see it if you look real close. Also, at the time of discovery, the mark had been circled and labeled.
