I am spending this week meeting with local planning boards to push for the Harbor Garage site development. Post this link on Facebook and email your city representative to tell them you want a walkable green waterfront now.

The momentum behind this plan proves that Boston is ready for a revitalized waterfront that prioritizes public access and green space. Email your city councilor today to demand they support this vision for the Harbor Garage site.

More jobs and actual green space instead of an empty parking lot sound like a win win to me. hope this happens soon.

YES. The views are blocked and it’s just ugly concrete. A real green space would be so much better for the neighborhood.

Finally some progress. That area is dead at night. Needs more than just a parking garage.

The garage is a total eyesore. Tear it down and lets get something actually useful there. Boston is changing and we need to keep up.
