In response to urban congestion, Boston built the first subway system in the United States, known as the Tremont Street Subway, which opened in 1897. This innovative transportation solution aimed to alleviate traffic congestion on the streets by providing a rapid transit alternative. Following Boston's example, New York City developed its own extensive subway system, which began operation in 1904, further revolutionizing urban transit. These systems laid the groundwork for modern urban public transportation networks.
