The spirit of Boston has always
been about the here and now. It's
the awareness that dreams can be
achieved, but the future can never
be controlled. But we sure can
try. After all, this is where patriots
in three-cornered hats and tea
party protestors spurred America's
birth. Today it's our state-of-the-
art laboratories, sleek corporate
think tanks, and hallowed halls of
academia where forward-thinking
revolutionaries are building a
new global future of life-saving
medicines, world-changing tech-
nologies, and life-enhancing
consumer products that our forefa-
thers could never have imagined.
That revolutionary spirit con-
tinues to triumph. Two years ago,
professional ballroom dancer
Adrianne Haslet-Davis lost her left
leg below the knee in the Boston
Marathon bombing. This year, she
fox-trotted across the fi nish line.
With that in mind, in the pages
that follow, we salute the legends,
leaders, visionaries, and moments
that have defi ned our city in the
last 10 years and keep Boston
strong... and dancing.
