Some very fantastic photos here. But I will vote for #2 because it best depicts Charlestown.

#2 is a fabulous photo but #12 with the Constitution and the Bunker Hill Monument is more representative of our history

Hi - I really like #2 and every time I am at the top of Pleasant I think, "what a great
view", however, the bank bldg is unique to the town and the positioning of the clock with the Cha Saving Bank circling it brings back an era gone by. I would vote for #3 because I remember a time when the city wanted to tear down the bldg and the town went crazy (how unusual) and it was saved and turned into a "community mall" long before "mall" was a household word. Lee Eiseman who lives on High St is responsible for getting the clock working! It was a challenge but it got done. What time is it? Does the clock have the correct time? If not, it may be time to get it adjusted again. Also, before Austin St was reconstructed, when you drove over the "Prison Point Bridge" into Thompson Sq., the BH Monument would disappear into the chimney of the Bank.

I do like the second picture but for historical reasons I would have to pick #21. Great picture Stevie!

#12! If anyone in America has any thoughts of Charlestown, he or she automatically thinks of "Old Ironsides" and the Bunker Hill Monument.
