The Blizzard of '78

The Beachmont section of Revere was among the hardest-hit sections of the town. Over 2,500 people had to evacuate homes there during the '78 storm. This view is on Ocean View Avenue near Broad Sound Avenue, about 20 feet from the Rocky Beach seawall. The boy’s name isn’t known.
