Dear Shareholder:
The Federal Reserve Board's effort to keep inflation in check without over-cooling the U.S. economy has taken a toll on the stock market. Through July 2000, bellwether equity indexes such as the Dow Jones Industrial Average, NASDAQ and S&P 500® have negative returns for the year. On the other hand, fixed-income markets are enjoying strong performance. Except for high-yield, most bond sectors - corporates, mortgages, Treasuries and agencies - have returned 4%-6% year to date.
While it's impossible to predict the future direction of the markets with any degree of certainty, there are certain basic principles that can help investors plan for their future needs.
The longer your investment time frame, the less likely it is that you will be affected by short-term market volatility. A 10-year investment horizon appropriate for saving for a college education, for example, enables you to weather market cycles in a long-term fund, which may have a higher risk potential, but also has a higher potential rate of return.
An intermediate-length fund could make sense if your investment horizon is two to four years, while a short-term bond fund could be the right choice if you need your money in one or two years.
If your time horizon is less than a year, you might want to consider moving some of your bond investment into a money market fund. These funds seek income and a stable share price by investing in high-quality, short-term investments. Of course, it's important to remember that an investment in a money market fund is not insured or guaranteed by the Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation or any other government agency. Although money market funds seek to preserve the value of your investment at $1.00 per share, it is possible to lose money by investing in these types of funds.
Finally, no matter what your time horizon or portfolio diversity, it makes good sense to follow a regular investment plan, investing a certain amount of money in a fund at the same time each month or quarter and periodically reviewing your overall portfolio. By doing so, you won't get caught up in the excitement of a rapidly rising market, nor will you buy all your shares at market highs. While this strategy - known as dollar cost averaging - won't assure a profit or protect you from a loss in a declining market, it should help you lower the average cost of your purchases. Of course, you should consider your financial ability to continue your purchases through periods of low price levels before undertaking such a strategy.
If you have questions, please call us at 1-800-544-6666, or visit our web site at www.fidelity.com. We are available 24 hours a day, seven days a week to provide you the information you need to make the investments that are right for you.

Annual Report
Fidelity Target Timeline 2001
There are several ways to evaluate a fund's historical performance. You can look at the total percentage change in value, the average annual percentage change or the growth of a hypothetical $10,000 investment. Total return reflects the change in the value of an investment, assuming reinvestment of the fund's dividend income and capital gains (the profits earned upon the sale of securities that have grown in value). You can also look at a fund's income, as reflected in its yield, to measure performance. If Fidelity had not reimbursed certain fund expenses, the total returns and dividends would have been lower.

Cumulative total returns show the fund's performance in percentage terms over a set period - in this case, one year or since the fund started on February 8, 1996. For example, if you had invested $1,000 in a fund that had a 5% return over the past year, the value of your investment would be $1,050. You can compare the fund's return to the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index - a market value-weighted index of investment-grade fixed-rate debt issues, including government, corporate, asset-backed, and mortgage-backed securities, with maturities of one year or more. You can also compare the fund to the average of the total returns of U.S. Treasury Strips maturing on 8/15/01 and 11/15/01, which reflects the performance of zero-coupon bonds with maturities similar to the fund's. These benchmarks reflect reinvestment of dividends and capital gains, if any.

$10,000 Over Life of Fund
$10,000 Over Life of Fund: Let's say hypothetically that $10,000 was invested in Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 on February 8, 1996, when the fund started. As the chart shows, by July 31, 2000, the value of the investment would be $12,574 - a 25.74% increase on the initial investment. For comparison, look at how the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index did over the same period. With dividends and capital gains, if any, reinvested, the same $10,000 investment would be $12,786 - a 27.86% increase. If $10,000 was put in U.S. Treasury Strips (8/15/01 and 11/15/01), it would be valued at $12,563 - a 25.63% increase.
Understanding
Performance
How a fund did yesterday is no guarantee of how it will do tomorrow. Bond prices, for example, generally move in the opposite direction of interest rates. In turn, the share price, return and yield of a fund that invests in bonds will vary. That means if you sell your shares during a market downturn, you might lose money. But if you can ride out the market's ups and downs, you may have a gain.

Annual Report
Market Recap
Despite facing the challenge of five interest-rate increases during the 12-month period that ended July 31, 2000, the taxable bond market - as measured by the Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index - returned 5.97%. The Federal Reserve Board's tightening policy, adopted to help slow down an overheated U.S. economy and ward off inflation, made for a sometimes difficult investing environment for bonds. During the first half of the period, the brunt of the Fed's action was felt by Treasuries, as they underperformed higher-yielding investment-grade spread sectors, such as corporate bonds and mortgage and government agency securities. In January, however, the momentum turned after the Treasury announced a plan to repurchase long-term debt and curtail future issuance. Treasury prices soared in response, sending their yields lower. This shift helped the Lehman Brothers Treasury Index return 6.48% during the period. At the same time, the Lehman Brothers Credit Bond Index - a measure of corporate bond performance - and the Lehman Brothers Mortgage-Backed Securities and U.S. Agency indexes returned 4.83%, 6.43% and 5.19%, respectively. Mortgage-backed securities rallied in the spring as a result of reduced supply, slower origination and a favorable prepayment environment. Elsewhere, rising default rates caused high-yield bonds to suffer more than most bonds, as the Merrill Lynch High Yield Master II Index returned -0.57% for the 12-month period.

An interview with Ford O'Neil, Portfolio Manager of Fidelity Target Timeline Funds 2001 and 2003
Q. How did the funds perform, Ford?
A. For the 12 months that ended July 31, 2000, Target Timeline 2001 and 2003 returned 4.96% and 4.70%, respectively. In comparison, U.S. Treasury Strips maturing at approximately the same times as the funds (August and November 2001 and 2003) averaged 5.24% and 5.51%, respectively. The Lehman Brothers Aggregate Bond Index had a 12-month return of 5.97%. The important thing to keep in mind is that it's difficult to measure these funds on a six- or 12-month time horizon; instead, they should be measured at maturity.
Q. What factors had the most influence on performance during the past 12 months?
A. The funds faced a stiff headwind of rising interest rates throughout the period, which constrained returns. Repeated efforts by the Federal Reserve Board to tighten monetary policy, coupled with the U.S. Treasury's decision in January to use government surplus proceeds to buy back long-term debt, spawned an inverted yield curve - which results when short-term bonds offer higher yields than longer-dated issues. Long-term Treasuries soared in response, inducing wider spreads and erasing the yield advantage enjoyed by the spread sectors - namely corporate bonds and government agencies - earlier in the period. Matters only got worse for some corporates, which suffered from declining credit quality related to the increased prevalence of share buybacks and recapitalizations in old economy companies. Short-term corporates slightly lagged comparable duration Treasuries, while intermediate issues underperformed their government counterparts. The story wasn't any brighter for agency securities, which underperformed across the curve thanks to growing uncertainty surrounding the credit quality of dominant issuers Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The 2003 fund paid the price for holding longer-duration corporates and agencies relative to an all-Treasury index. On the other hand, the 2001 fund didn't suffer as much because the yield advantage from owning corporates and agencies - in most cases - more than offset the price declines associated with the spread widening.
Annual Report
Fund Talk: The Manager's Overview - continued
Q. What were the challenges of meeting the funds' investment objective in this environment?
A. Our goal is to generate a predictable return, slightly greater than the index net of fees, over each fund's lifetime. We typically are successful at this task when spreads are either unchanged or tightening. However, when spreads are moving in the opposite direction, we hope that our yield advantage is greater than the losses incurred by the widening. In an environment such as the past 12 months, where spreads of some of the securities we owned doubled over a very short period of time, it was difficult to keep pace with an index consisting only of Treasuries.
Q. What were some of your key strategies, and how did they play out for the funds?
A. Given the "negative event risk" that threatened the credit quality of many corporate bonds during the period, I felt the best strategy to limit the funds' downside potential was to diversify and transform many of their bigger plays into several smaller positions, while simultaneously looking to improve the overall credit quality of the portfolios. I did so within the maturity constraints of the funds. Tactical allocations into different subsectors, teamed with strong security selection, helped mitigate the effects of our overweighting in corporates relative to the index. The funds' investments in Yankee bonds - or dollar-denominated foreign government and corporate debt - helped the most, benefiting in large part from our exposure to recovering Asian economies, particularly South Korea. Having good exposure to energy and the rebound in oil prices also helped, as did many of our bank and brokerage holdings. On the flip side, tobacco and select industrial issues trended lower, detracting from fund returns.
Q. What's your outlook?
A. It remains positive. We're beginning to see signs that the economy is downshifting, which could mean that we're close to the end of the Fed's yearlong tightening cycle. If so, corporate spreads could narrow - barring any major credit problems - from their most attractive levels in over a decade. I plan to maintain the funds' emphasis on higher-quality, defensive corporates, as well as short-duration agencies, for the yield advantage they offer relative to Treasuries and their potential for capital appreciation.

3Ford O'Neil reflects on the inverted Treasury yield curve:
"Historically, inversions often have been the precursor to recession, getting their spark from aggressive Fed tightening at the short end of the curve. Recently, however, we've had more of a gradual approach to tightening, but nowhere near the magnitude of what we experienced in the 1970s, 80s and early 90s - the last three times we had an inverted yield curve. I believe the environment today is starkly different. Fundamentally, economic indicators are pointing more toward a slowdown - albeit from a torrid pace - than a recession.
"So, what's really behind the inversion? The answer lies in the technicals of the market. Influenced by a growing federal budget surplus, the U.S. Treasury announced midway through the period its intent to buy back higher-yielding long-term debt and reduce future bond issuance. This action, coupled with the government's desire to reduce the average maturity of its issues, induced a strong rally at the long end of the curve. Rising short-term rates - responding to an aggressive Fed, partially influenced by a booming domestic economy - ensured the curve's inversion. As long Treasury yields have fallen, comparable corporate spreads have widened, leaving their yields relatively unchanged. This all makes for a rather unfavorable risk/reward scenario for investors such as myself who demand more yield for the extra risk associated with longer-duration securities."

1. Significant Accounting Policies.
Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 (the funds) are funds of Fidelity Boston Street Trust (the trust). The trust is registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, as an open-end management investment company organized as a Massachusetts business trust. Each fund is authorized to issue an unlimited number of shares. The financial statements have been prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles which require management to make certain estimates and assumptions at the date of the financial statements. The target dates for Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 are September 30, 2001 and 2003, respectively. On those dates, the respective funds will mature. Target Timeline 2001 is expected to close to new accounts as of the close of business of the New York Stock Exchange on September 25, 2000. Current shareholders of Target Timeline 2001 will be able to continue to purchase shares in accounts existing on that date. Target Timeline 2003's Board of Trustees anticipates closing the fund to new accounts approximately one year prior to its target date. The funds' Board of Trustees expects to liquidate each fund within one month after the fund's target date. The following summarizes the significant accounting policies of the funds:
Security Valuation. Securities are valued based upon a computerized matrix system and/or appraisals by a pricing service, both of which consider market transactions and dealer-supplied valuations. Securities (including restricted securities) for which market quotations are not readily available are valued at their fair value as determined in good faith under consistently applied procedures under the general supervision of the Board of Trustees. Short-term securities with remaining maturities of sixty days or less for which quotations are not readily available are valued at amortized cost or original cost plus accrued interest, both of which approximate current value.
Income Taxes. As a qualified regulated investment company under Subchapter M of the Internal Revenue Code, each fund is not subject to income taxes to the extent that it distributes substantially all of its taxable income for its fiscal year. The schedule of investments includes information regarding income taxes under the caption "Income Tax Information."
Investment Income. Interest income, which includes accretion of original issue discount, is accrued as earned.
Expenses. Most expenses of the trust can be directly attributed to a fund. Expenses which cannot be directly attributed are apportioned among the funds in the trust.
Distributions to Shareholders. Distributions are declared daily and paid monthly from net investment income. Distributions from realized gains, if any, are recorded on the ex-dividend date.
Income and capital gain distributions are determined in accordance with income tax regulations which may differ from generally accepted accounting principles. These
Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements - continued
1. Significant Accounting Policies - continued
Distributions to Shareholders - continued
differences, which may result in distribution reclassifications, are primarily due to differing treatments for market discount, capital loss carryforwards, and losses deferred due to wash sales and excise tax regulations.
Permanent book and tax basis differences relating to shareholder distributions will result in reclassifications to paid in capital. Undistributed net investment income and accumulated undistributed net realized gain (loss) on investments may include temporary book and tax basis differences which will reverse in a subsequent period. Any taxable income or gain remaining at fiscal year end is distributed in the following year.
Short-Term Trading (Redemption) Fees. Shares held in the funds less than 90 days are subject to a short-term trading fee equal to .50% of the proceeds of the redeemed shares. The fee, which is retained by the fund, is accounted for as an addition to paid in capital.
Security Transactions. Security transactions are accounted for as of trade date. Gains and losses on securities sold are determined on the basis of identified cost.
2. Operating Policies.
Joint Trading Account. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the SEC), the funds, along with other affiliated entities of Fidelity Management & Research Company (FMR), may transfer uninvested cash balances into one or more joint trading accounts. These balances are invested in one or more repurchase agreements for U.S. Treasury or Federal Agency obligations.
Repurchase Agreements. The underlying U.S. Treasury, Federal Agency, or other obligations found to be satisfactory by FMR are transferred to an account of the funds, or to the Joint Trading Account, at a custodian bank. The securities are marked-to-market daily and maintained at a value at least equal to the principal amount of the repurchase agreement (including accrued interest). FMR, the funds' investment adviser, is responsible for determining that the value of the underlying securities remains in accordance with the market value requirements stated above.
Interfund Lending Program. Pursuant to an Exemptive Order issued by the SEC, each fund, along with other registered investment companies having management contracts with FMR, may participate in an interfund lending program. This program provides an alternative credit facility allowing the fund to borrow from, or lend money to, other participating funds.
Restricted Securities. The funds are permitted to invest in securities that are subject to legal or contractual restrictions on resale.
Annual Report
Notes to Financial Statements - continued
2. Operating Policies - continued
Restricted Securities - continued
These securities generally may be resold in transactions exempt from registration or to the public if the securities are registered. Disposal of these securities may involve time-consuming negotiations and expense, and prompt sale at an acceptable price may be difficult. At the end of the period, no funds had investments in restricted securities (excluding 144A issues).
3. Purchases and Sales of Investments.
Information regarding purchases and sales of securities (other than short-term securities), is included under the caption "Other Information" at the end of each applicable fund's schedule of investments.
4. Fees and Other Transactions with Affiliates.
Management Fee. As each fund's investment adviser, FMR receives a monthly fee that is calculated on the basis of a group fee rate plus a fixed individual fund fee rate applied to the average net assets of each fund. The group fee rate is the weighted average of a series of rates and is based on the monthly average net assets of all the mutual funds advised by FMR. The rates ranged from .0920% to .3700% for the period. The annual individual fund fee rate is .30%. In the event that these rates were lower than the contractual rates in effect during the period, FMR voluntarily implemented the above rates, as they resulted in the same or a lower management fee. For the period, the management fees were equivalent to annual rates of .43% of average net assets for each fund.
Sub-Adviser Fee. As each fund's investment sub-adviser, Fidelity Investments Money Management, Inc.(FIMM), a wholly owned subsidiary of FMR, receives a fee from FMR of 50% of the management fee payable to FMR. The fee is paid prior to any voluntary expense reimbursements which may be in effect.
Transfer Agent Fees. Fidelity Service Company, Inc. (FSC), an affiliate of FMR, is the funds' transfer, dividend disbursing and shareholder servicing agent. FSC receives account fees and asset-based fees that vary according to account size and type of account. FSC pays for typesetting, printing and mailing of all shareholder reports, except proxy statements. For the period, the transfer agent fees were equivalent to an annual rate of .13% and .15% of the average net assets of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003, respectively.
Accounting and Security Lending Fees. FSC maintains each fund's accounting records and administers the security lending program. The security lending fee is based on the number and duration of lending transactions. The accounting fee is based on the level of average net assets for the month plus out-of-pocket expenses.
5. Interfund Lending Program.
Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 participated in the interfund lending program as a lender. The average daily loan balance during the period for which the loan was
Annual Report

5. Interfund Lending
Program - continued
outstanding amounted to $3,793,000. The weighted average interest rate was 5.92%. Interest earned from the interfund lending program amounted to $3,118 and is included in interest income on the Statement of Operations. At period end there were no interfund loans outstanding.
6. Security Lending.
Certain funds lend portfolio securities from time to time in order to earn additional income. Each applicable fund receives collateral(in the form of U.S. Treasury obligations, letters of credit and/or cash) against the loaned securities and maintains collateral in an amount not less than 100% of the market value of the loaned securities during the period of the loan. The market value of the loaned securities is determined at the close of business of the funds and any additional required collateral is delivered to the funds on the next business day. If the borrower defaults on its obligation to return the securities loaned because of insolvency or other reasons, a fund could experience delays and costs in recovering the securities loaned or in gaining access to the collateral. At period end there were no security loans outstanding.
7. Expense Reductions.
FMR voluntarily agreed to reimburse each fund's operating expenses (excluding interest, taxes, certain securities lending fees, brokerage commissions and extraordinary expenses, if any) above an annual rate of
.35% of each fund's average net assets. For the period, the reimbursement reduced the expenses by $489,293 and $186,275 for Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003, respectively.
FMR has directed certain portfolio trades to brokers who paid a portion of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001's expenses. For the period, the fund's expenses were reduced by $443 under this arrangement.
In addition, through an arrangement with the funds' custodian, credits realized as a result of uninvested cash balances were used to reduce a portion of each fund's expenses. During the period, Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003's custodian fees were reduced by $1,728 and $24, respectively, under this arrangement.
8. Beneficial Interest.
At the end of the period, FMR and its affiliates was record owner of approximately 12% of the total outstanding shares of Target Timeline 2003.
Annual Report
To the Board of Trustees and Shareholders of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003:
We have audited the accompanying statements of assets and liabilities of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 (the funds), each a fund of Fidelity Boston Street Trust (the Trust), including the portfolios of investments, as of July 31, 2000, and the related statements of operations for the year then ended, the statements of changes in net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and the financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended. These financial statements and financial highlights are the responsibility of the funds' management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements and financial highlights based on our audits.
We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements and financial highlights are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our procedures included confirmation of securities owned as of July 31, 2000, by correspondence with the custodian and brokers; where replies were not received from brokers, we performed other auditing procedures. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.
In our opinion, the financial statements and financial highlights referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of Fidelity Target Timeline 2001 and Fidelity Target Timeline 2003 as of July 31, 2000, the results of their operations for the year then ended, the changes in their net assets for each of the two years in the period then ended, and their financial highlights for each of the five years in the period then ended, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.
