Today's NY Times article about yesterday's vigils supporting Cindy Sheehan's protest has a photo of the Davis Square vigil.

They mention a few in the article (Davis Sq, NYC, Chicago) and it sounds like the one here was one of the biggest.

There are plenty of more diverse urban areas though. Park Street, Jackson Square, Downtown Crossing ... I can think of plenty of less-liberal urban spaces.

There was, indeed, a large vigil held at Park Street T stop (as well as many more around the Boston area, including several others in Cambridge and Somerville as well as Medford, Malden, Melrose, Arlington, ... ...) The Davis Square vigil was not instead of holding vigils in less "liberal-urban" spaces, the idea was that there be local vigils in as many places as possible, held by people from those places. They all complemented each other.
