    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.

  • Introduction
    DRAFT MEMORANDUM DATE November xx, 2012 TO Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization FROM Mark Abbott and Bill Kuttner MPO Staff RE Safe Access to Transit for Pedestrians and Bicycles: Morton Street Commuter Rail Station Introduction The Morton Street commuter rail station, located at 865 Morton Street, in Mattapan, was selected to be included in the Safe Access to Transit for Pedestrians and Bicyclists Study. This study examines nonmotorized accessibility issues related to Morton Street Station and identifies short- and long-term measures that may improve pedestrian and bicyclist access to the Metropolitan Bay Transportation Authority (MBTA) system. Morton Street Station was selected based on the following factors: • Identified as needing improvements according to a qualitative MBTA station access assessment.1 • Located in an area with a high density of employment, retail activity, and/or population. • Located in an area with a high crash rate for vehicles, pedestrians, and/or bicyclists. • Of the large number of passengers boarding or alighting at Morton Street Station (almost 203 on an average weekday), about 61.7% walk, 0% bike, and 0% use an MBTA bus to access the station or to travel from the station to their destinations.2 This station has one of the lowest percentages of bike access among stations with a high population or employment density. • There is no parking for motor vehicles, and there are only 20 bike parking spaces at this station; the surrounding area lacks pedestrian amenities. 1 Boston Region Metropolitan Planning Organization, “Needs Assessment (Volume 2 of Paths to a Sustainable Region), produced by the Central Transportation Planning Staff, September 27, 2011.
