British Royals William, Kate arrive in Boston, address crowds
Prince William thanked “all the hearty Bostonians” who spent the Wednesday afternoon getting rained on as they waited for him to speak for a total of about 2 minutes and 20 seconds — and his wife Princess Kate to remain silent in the background.
William, Kate, Wu and Healey all spoke in the newly christened “Speakers Corner” of the recently reopened City Hall Plaza a few hundred feet from where the Boston Massacre happened in the leadup to the Revolutionary War. The Union Jack British flag flapped in the swirling winds on the third flagpole outside of City Hall next to the U.S. and city banners.
“Boston is committed to being the greenest city in the country,” Wu said. “And we are infusing climate progress into everything we do.” Per the pool report, Healey, Wu, City Councilor President Ed Flynn and the royals had tea and cake in the Eagle Room in the mayor’s offices, joined by Wu’s two kids and husband.This is the first time since 1976 that British royals have been in City Hall; then, William’s mother joined Mayor Kevin White for the U.S.’s bicentennial anniversary of the country declaring independence from England.
