Boston - Copley Square 
To the west of the Hancock Tower is Copley Square, the main square of the Back Bay area, surrounded by both old and ultra-modern buildings, department stores, hotels and shops. On the east side of the square is Trinity Church, a Neo-Romanesque red sandstone building with fine stained glass, some of it by Edward Burne-Jones and William Morris. On the west side is Boston Public Library (1895), in Italian Renaissance style. Farther west is the ultra-modern Prudential Center, with the Prudential Tower.

It is modeled after some of the churches Richardson saw in Europe while studying at the Ecole des Beaux Arts in Paris, notably the Old Cathedral in Salamanca, Spain. The interior of the church features ceiling frescoes, paintings and murals by artist John LaFarge.
