  • Red / Blue Line Connector Assessment – Land Use, Population, and Ridership Memo 2 2
    SUMMARY MEMORANDUM: POPULATION, LAND USE, AND RIDERSHIP CHANGES UPDATE TO THE 2010 DEIR FOR THE RED LINE/BLUE LINE CONNECTOR Published October 2018 1. Introduction In 2010, Massachusetts Department of Transportation (MassDOT) conducted a study to evaluate the connection of the Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s (MBTA’s) Red Line and Blue Line in Boston. The Red/Blue Line Connector Project consisted of extending the Blue Line beyond its current terminus at Bowdoin Station along Cambridge Street to the Red Line at Charles/ MGH Station. In March 2010, MassDOT submitted a Draft Environmental Impact Report (DEIR) pursuant to the Massachusetts Environmental Policy Act (MEPA). In May 2010, MEPA approved the DEIR. At the time, MassDOT had not identified funding for the construction of the Project. Recent changes in development and growth in Revere, East Boston, and Cambridge, as well as advancements in construction technologies, have generated a renewed interest in revisiting the need for the Red/Blue Line Connector. MassDOT’s Office of Transportation and Planning (OTP), working with the MBTA, has initiated a study to reassess the Project by revisiting previous assumptions developed during the 2010 DEIR. The purpose of this memorandum is to update the data and assumptions regarding population, land use, and ridership from the 2010 DEIR’s Purpose and Need. The 2010 DEIR focused primarily on four Census tracks surrounding the Cambridge Street corridor project area. However, due to their current access to the Blue and Red lines, the communities in this area would likely not have a large effect on demand for and use of the connection.

  • Note: See the Tour Map Numbers That Correspond with the Following Text
    Note: see the tour map numbers that correspond with the following text. 1. Cambridge Common The Cambridge Common is the City’s oldest public open space. In its present form, the Common consists of 8-1/2 acres of land, which is all that remains of the thousands of acres of common land that were granted to the original proprietors of Cambridge in 1630. During Colonial times, the Common was a place for military drill. The Common was originally landscaped as a park in 1830 and contains many commemorative monuments. 2. Brattle Street Cambridge’s most famous street, Brattle Street is known for its history and architecture. Most of the City’s remaining pre-Revolutionary era houses are located on Brattle Street, which is often called Tory Row because of the loyalist owners who built these old homes. The street boasts examples of the work of some of America’s best architects. Note the H. H. Richardson-designed Stoughton House (1883) at #90, the Vassal-Craigie-Longfellow House (1759) at #105, and the Hooper-Lee-Nichols House (1685) at #159. 3. Reservoir Street In 1856, the Cambridge Water Works constructed a steam pump on the shore of Fresh Pond from which the water was driven uphill through iron pipes to a reservoir on the Fayerweather estate. From Reservoir Hill, the water flowed by gravity to Old Cambridge. 4. Fresh Pond This natural landscape feature is a spring-fed lake, formed by a melting glacier. In the mid-eighteenth century, the shores were used as a wealthy resort destination. By the nineteenth century, the capability of Fresh Pond as a major ice harvesting supply was realized.

The fact that burnout is accelerating rapidly throughout the healthcare industry is unfortunate. While some institutions are beginning to focus on this costly problem, there is a general absence of robust and proven interventions needed to remedy the situation. This presents an incredible opportunity for Primary Care Progress. Primary Care Progress (PCP) is paving the way to shift the hearts and minds of the current workforce. Healthcare professionals are now starting to think about teamwork, community, professionalism and advocacy in a whole new way. PCP has engaged in thought leadership through research, publications, and public speaking, and people have been incredibly responsive. This is an exciting time to be part of this evolution. Strengthening the Community at the Heart of Care Founded in 2010 and headquartered in Cambridge, Massachusetts, PCP has grown out of a grassroots primary care revitalization effort launched at Harvard Medical School.
