The area of Brighton was established in the late 17th century and was first known as "Little Cambridge". The residents acquired legal separation from Cambridge in 1807 and officially named the town Brighton. The town was then officially annexed to the City of Boston in 1874 and it remains a part of Boston today.
In post colonial days Brighton was home to agricultural plots and stockyards, but with the extension of the street car lines in the 1800s came residential growth. Soon houses and apartments were built all across the neighborhoods.
Brighton is primarily populated by graduate students and young professionals. Along Washington Street you will find small family businesses and Saint Elizabeth's Hospital - reputed as one of the finest hospitals in the northeast.
Brighton is host to the Bryman Institute, Saint John's Seminary and part of Boston College. Nearby you will find some of the finest institutes of higher learning in the country including Boston University, Harvard University and MIT.

Whitey: The Life of America's Most Notorious Mob Boss--Dick Lehr, coauthor of Whitey talks about this bestseller.
In their bestselling book, Dick Lehr and Gerard O'Neill reveal the factors and forces that created the monster. This is a deeply rendered portrait of evil that spans nearly a century taking Whitey from the streets of his boyhood Southie in the 1940's to his cell in Alcatraz in the l950's to his cunning, corrupt pact with the FBI in the 1970's and finally, to Santa Monica, California where for fifteen years he was hiding in plain sight as one of the FBI's most wanted. In a lifetime of crime and murder that ended with his arrest on June 2011, Whitey Bulger became one of the most powerful and deadly crime bosses of the twentieth century
