The Boston 200 Corporation was formed as a non-profit agency in 1972 to plan and conduct the celebration of the Bicentennial. Boston 200 ran from 1972 through 1976. One program of the celebration was "Neighborhood and Community Programs" which explored and celebrated the histories of Boston's neighborhoods and their residents. This program area consisted of neighborhood exhibits, booklets by residents, visible projects, and local preservation programs.

In East Boston, the activities included an Oral History Project, which the City of Boston Archives digitized and made available in their digital repository: https://cityofboston.access.preservica.com/uncategorized/SO_5a4ebe0e-dfaa-4cf5-9574-0b73e1d0e462/
