L Street Bathhouse - View this location on map This Art Deco structure is credited to Boston Mayor James Michael Curley (1874-1958). Dedicated to the working class, Curley dominated Boston politics for years, focusing on issues of public health, housing, and recreation. In 1931 Curley replaced an earlier structure with this facility, which boasted many amenities in spite of the Depression. Now known as the Curley Community Center, the bathhouse, long home of the famous L Street Brownies, continues a long tradition of recreation and community.
