Streaming-Era MA on Screen

From a Newton park to a Cape Ann fishing village, four recent streaming and prestige productions borrowed real Massachusetts settings for their fictional towns

Film crews come to Newton for streets that can pretend to be anywhere. Here is what they used. Seven stops over 102.1 miles, about four hours of driving. The story for each stop plays as you arrive, so nothing has to be looked up and nobody has to be followed.

Newton has four MassRoam tours and no two cover the same ground. It works as well at eight in the morning as it does at dusk. Stop for coffee, pick it back up.
