They could have given the colonists representation in Parliament, allowing them a say in the laws that affected them. They could have repealed the various taxation acts that fueled the colonists' grievances. Lastly, they could have engaged in more open and inclusive dialogue with colonial leaders to address their concerns and find common ground.
Washington had his army occupy the heights over Boston. His army could attack the British army from two different directions, so the British had to divide their forces to defend their position. He could see any impending British attack so he did not need to divide his forces. His cannon were placed where they could fire on the British positions.

During the Revolutionary the British abandoned Boston. The situation in Boston became untenable. Or, they could not hold it. The United States could attack with its army and defeat the British Army. Instead, the British could go to New York. The United States had nothing that could match the British naval guns. New York City, except for The Bronx, is completely surrounded by water. The British could stay in New York as long as they wanted and use it as a base. Unlike Boston, the British in Boston could use ships for Artillery against infantry.
