In Boston, within the Seaport District, is the Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center, which has flags hanging in a line from the roof-top.

The Seaport Hotel and World Trade Center is found in the South Boston neighborhood; however, with the development happening here, it may become it's own neighborhood. The convention center is located along the inner harbor off Seaport Boulevard. There is a separate road to the main entrance - we'll get back to that. However, the place to view the flags is from the boulevard, on either side of the convention center.

The flags are very high and run the length of the building. They are the same no matter which side you view. Each flag is tied within its own metal frame.

The flags seen include the following:
Canada
Mexico
Japan
Britain
South Korea

At both ends of the convention building is the American flag with Seaport flags and other unidentified flags flying (or hanging) vertically.

If you go to the main entrance either through the convention center or through another building, you reach the Boulevard of the flags, which features BANNERS with world flags on the design. Since these were banners, I had not considered this as part of the flag display. But, it's still worth checking out. Flags here are also on the side display.
