Wu tells how Boston built America's first subway in 1897, relieving a congested city and laying the groundwork for modern transit nationwide.

I love Mayor Wu - hurray for Boston!
I see the piano in the background, reminds me of when mayor Wu played Bach prelude no. 1 in duo with Yo Yo Ma playing Ave Maria for a Boston recognition event.
