Brush up on your Boston geography:

"Here, smack in the middle of Copley Square, is a tunnel, above which hangs a sign emblazoned with the destination NEW YORK. Boston has always seemed to have a certain inferiority complex when it comes to our neighbor to the south. But right in the middle of our own city, we have what looks to be an escape hatch, leading straight to that more urbane metropolis, lest the Hub ever get too provincial."

Wonderful insight! I've come to that conclusion a few times, both walking through the Copley area and actually using that tunnel. Rather than "Framingham," "Worcester," or "Springfield" the sign has always said "New York," yet further out on the Pike signs read more locally "Framingham," "Worcester" and "Springfield."
