The harbor breeze tugs at your jacket as you tap "Start" on the Let’s Roam app and step from the promenade into a patchwork of piers, plazas and brick streets. Seagulls wheel above the water daring you to look up from the map; cobblestone alleys between rowhouses pull you into neighborhoods where murals and maritime relics sit side-by-side.
