Boston BarBoston Bar (21 August 2011)


Boston Bar is the building at the junction of Penang Road and Prangin Road in George Town, Penang. It was a popular bar in the 1950s and 60s. The façade was in the early Modern or late Art Deco style. Boston Bar has since closed down a long time ago, and is today just a shell, as much of its interior has been gutted.

As of now, there is no plan afoot to restore Boston Bar to its former glory. The shops below it are still occupied by shops selling bags, hats and other accessories.
