[1] The World Trade Center part of the complex is located on Commonwealth Pier.
Able to accommodate the largest vessels that entered the port of Boston, this facility was an integral part of city's maritime industry, handling both freight and passenger traffic, with rail and truck transportation access right on the pier.
In the early 1980s, the Massachusetts Port Authority designated Fidelity Investments and The Drew Company as developers of Commonwealth Pier,[3] which they transformed into the World Trade Center Boston in 1986.
In 1998, Fidelity Investments and The Drew Company opened the Seaport Boston Hotel alongside the World Trade Center.
[8] The hotel has four restaurants and a health and fitness center, including a swimming pool.
