Although a California native, transplanted Bostonian and photographer Lolita Parker, Jr. has diligently documented the tremendous changes that have occurred in the Hub’s West End over the past 16 years. The exhibit The New West Enders & Other Green Monsters, on view at the free West End Museum (150 Staniford St., 617-723-2125, thewestendmuseum.org) through February 28, showcases Parker’s pictures of the people and events—particularly the 2004 Democratic National Convention at the then-FleetCenter (now TD Garden), the demolition of the elevated MBTA Green Line tracks on Causeway Street and the completion of the Big Dig—that have shaped this neighborhood as it continues to evolve into the 21st century.
