Boston Light Source was founded in 1977 by Paul Chabot and Rudy Hopfgarten. At that time, Boston was in the midst of an urban construction renaissance. By creating a tourist destination along State Street, Historic Faneuil Hall was reconnected with the harbor and the newly renovated wharf buildings. Paul and Rudy's involvement with the relighting of the Quincy Market Food Court encouraged us to establish our office location on adjacent Commercial Wharf.
