Allston was an eastern section of the former town of Brighton.
In 1867, a new railroad depot for the Boston and Albany Railroad opened. In 1868 the station and post office in Brighton’s eastern portion were given the name “Allston” after Washington Allston, the noted painter who had lived and worked across the Charles River in the Cambridgeport section of Cambridge. It can even be said to have been named for a specific painting: Washington Allston’s “Fields West of Boston”.
Allston has never existed as a separate political entity in its own right. Brighton was annexed by the City of Boston in 1874. Henry Wadsworth Longfellow owned several properties in Allston. In 1887 the wooden depot was replaced by the station depicted at the right. In 1888 Boston’s first trolley route began there, running a route through Coolidge Corner, Brookline, to Boylston Street, to downtown Boston.
