We anticipate construction dewatering will be conducted, as necessary, during below grade excavation and planned construction. The site is bounded to the north by the JFK/UMass MBTA red line station, to the east by William T. Morrissey Boulevard, to the south by paved parking associated with Shaw’s Supermarket, beyond which lies the Shaw’s Supermarket, and to the west by MBTA railroad tracks and the elevated I-93 (Southeast Expressway).

  • DCAMM Public Comment (PDF)
    April 21, 2021 Loryn Sheffner Office of Real Estate Management Service Division of Capital Asset Management and Maintenance, 1 Ashburton Place, 15th Floor Boston, MA 02108 Dear Ms. Sheffner, A broad coalition of community members, organizations, neighbors and other organizations in partnership with Emerald Necklace Conservancy believe the Commonwealth of Massachusetts and the City of Boston has an opportunity to supply the much-needed housing and health and supportive services in a superior location while also restoring 13-acres of parkland to high-needs, Environmental Justice Communities surrounding Franklin Park. Franklin Park is the Wrong Location for these Important Needs Franklin Park, a 527- acre gem of the Emerald Necklace, was designed in 1895 by Frederick Law Olmsted, and has since become a key open space for neighboring communities, providing a gathering space for events, as well as a welcome respite from city life. However, much of Forest Hills parkland is no longer Cemetary truly free and open to the public, with over Mattapan 200 acres altered, Figure 1: Map of Franklin Park, outlining areas not freely accessible including, the to the public (add neighborhood labels- community names) addition of the Preferred Location of 18-Acre Commonwealth-controlled Franklin Park Zoo, the “Arborway Yard” site William J. Devine Golf Course, and the Shattuck Hospital (built on what was formally Heathfield), and other facilities. As can be seen in the included figure 1, these uses are primarily sited on the Dorchester/Mattapan/Roxbury sides of the park, and limit accessible free and open space for those communities. These uses make up over 40% of Franklin Park, restricting open space availability and access in high-needs Environmental Justice Communities.
