Climate Resiliency
Many waterfront parks designed for climate resilience have emerged over the past few decades along the world’s coastlines. Lessons learned from these pioneering open spaces will help to guide designs.
Transit-Oriented
MBTA bus route 120 serves the area of the park, and the closest T stop, (Maverick-Blue line), is just a five minute walk, as is the Mary Ellen Welch Greenway.
Open Space
Community input is still being gathered so that the final design addresses local needs and concerns. The first design draft features tide pools, grassy lawns, a kayak launch, and natural plantings.
Community Space
Input gathered during community meetings and webinars so far include ideas for live performances, spaces to celebrate events and life milestones, and welcoming areas for all to enjoy.
Event Programming
Following a public survey collecting ideas for the park design which gathered over 1,000 responses, a second survey is now collecting ideas about future events and programming at the park.
