Perkins Research Department Boston Redevelopment Authority Boston Redevelopment Authority Mark Maloney, Director Clarence J. Jones, Chairman Consuelo Gonzales Thornell, Treasurer Joseph W. Nigro, Jr., Co-Vice Chairman Michael Taylor, Co-Vice Chairman Christopher J. Supple, Member Harry R. Collings, Secretary CHINATOWN DEMOGRAPHIC AND HOUSING PROFILE, 2000 Location and Size The boundaries used for Chinatown in this profile are the same as the two Census Tracts 702 and 704 which comprises about 137 acres of land area or only two tenths of a square mile. This area covers approximately from Boylston and Beech Street on the north to East Berkeley Street on the south and from Charles Street South and Tremont Street on the west to Albany Street on the east. Chinatown is adjacent to Downtown Boston, bordered by the Boston Common and Downtown Crossing on the north to the South End on the south, and then from Park Square and Bay Village on the west to the Southeast Expressway on the east. It includes most of the Theater District, some of Emerson College, and most of the Tufts/New England Medical Center. These two Census tracts have a population of 6,015 with 4,169 Asians. If you include about ten blocks north of these two Census tracts in Census tract 701 there are about another 1,000 Asians. But because the study is limited to Census Tract boundaries and because Census tract 701 includes the Midtown, Waterfront and Devonshire areas, with many more non-Asians, it is not included in this study of Chinatown.

    333 Washington Street, Suite 854, Boston, MA 02108 T(617-227-1900 F(617)227-2815 www.bmrb.org Testimony of the Boston Municipal Research Bureau Before the Boston City Council's Committee on Economic Development and Planning August 2, 2010 Regarding: Docket #0997, In Support of a Downtown Boston Business Improvement District Mr. Chairman, my name is Sam Tyler, President of the Boston Municipal Research Bureau and I am here today to testify in support of Docket #0997 to authorize creation of the Downtown Boston Business Improvement District. The Research Bureau's office on Washington Street is situated in the middle of Downtown Boston and we firmly agree that the mix of commercial, retail, hospitality, nonprofit institutional and residential property in the area and the foot traffic of over 200,000 people daily demand a higher level of services than the City now provides. We believe that the supplemental services that a BID will offer beyond the City's baseline services will help revitalize Downtown Boston and support long- term enhanced maintenance of the area. The Downtown Boston BID will encompass an area from the top bound by Tremont Street between Government Center and Boylston and Essex Streets and at the bottom by Congress and High Streets. The Research Bureau has been involved with evaluating plans to create a Downtown Boston BID since the first effort in 1998 and later in 2002. We originally raised concerns that the City of Boston does not provide services commensurate with the service needs of this district or the taxes generated in the area.

  • History of the Revitalization Effort Roslindale, MA Originally Part of Roxbury and Then West Roxbury Was Established in 1870
    History of the Revitalization Effort Roslindale, MA originally part of Roxbury and then West Roxbury was established in 1870. During the 1950’s and 1960’s it had a thriving commercial district (2 supermarkets, a movie theater, department store, etc.). During the mid 1970’s the commercial district saw a major decline due to the desegregation of the schools and subsequent flight of people to the suburbs and the growth of shopping malls. This decline continued for over 15 years. The commercial district during that time was empty storefronts and burned out buildings. Seventy-five percent of the commercial spaces were vacant. The businesses that managed to stay in the district were completely grated. There was virtually no foot traffic. At the direction of City Councilor Thomas Menino (now Mayor of Boston), struggling merchants in the commercial district organized and applied to the National Trust for Historic Preservation’s Urban Demonstration Program. Roslindale Village Main Street (RVMS) was organized in 1985. Once organized, RVMS began the process of revitalizing the commercial district by fully working the Four Points of Main Streets. When community activists learned that the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) was planning a new commuter rail line that would go from downtown Boston to the suburbs, passing through Roslindale without stopping, they lobbied hard and successfully for a Roslindale stop. This stop provides a 12-minute ride to downtown Boston and has fueled to rebirth of the area. In 1990 residents of Roslindale, spurred on by the efforts of RVMS, mobilized to form an organization for the purpose of opening a cooperative market.
