Quincy is the City of Presidents. John Adams and John Quincy Adams were both born here, and their birthplaces and family home sit inside Adams National Historical Park. The city also has 27 miles of shoreline, four MBTA Red Line stops and a long history of granite quarrying and shipbuilding.
Quincy split from Braintree in 1792 and took its name from Colonel John Quincy, grandfather of Abigail Adams. The Granite Railway, built here in 1826, hauled Quincy granite to Charlestown for the Bunker Hill Monument. The Fore River Shipyard launched the first USS Lexington aircraft carrier in 1925. Quincy mixes a busy downtown with beach and harbor neighborhoods like Wollaston, Squantum, Marina Bay and Houghs Neck. Many residents ride the Red Line into Boston and spend weekends on the water or in the city's parks.
