Originally, the area where the city of Boston was built was a peninsula, connected to the mainland by a narrow strip. What that narrow strip didn't exist (or was washed away, or something... I know geologic PODs early on have huge butterflies, and I'd rather not have any before the 1600s), and Boston was an island?
Would the city still be built in the same location? How would this affect the future growth of the city- would you see it eventually connected to the mainland via fill?
