Today, East Boston is one of the city’s most attractive enclaves. Its authentic character and community feel has attracted a new generation of residents, drawn to its convenient location, great ethnic cuisine, cultural and outdoor amenities, and sweeping views of the Boston skyline.

  • For Immediate Release February 7, 2018 Long-Awaited Boston
    For Immediate Release February 7, 2018 Long-awaited Boston Harborwalk Map Made Possible with Public Mitigation Funds Boston Harbor Now’s map-based, mobile-friendly database will help people find public spaces and amenities along the city’s waterfront Boston, MA – The Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MassDEP) will direct mitigation funds from the Fan Pier development to the creation of the Boston Harbor Now Harborwalk Benefits Map and public waterfront amenities database. The user-friendly map and database will create a one-stop-shop option for visitors to easily navigate the waterfront and understand the full inventory of public amenities offered along the Harborwalk. The funding comes from The Fallon Company – whose 21-acre Fan Pier development constructed in the Seaport District in 2007 includes multiple waterfront parks and is surrounded by the Harborwalk on three sides – as part of their Chapter 91 license agreement with MassDEP. Boston Harbor Now conceptualized the online Harborwalk Benefits Map after identifying a lack of knowledge among the public, properties, and other waterfront stakeholders regarding opportunities along the Harbor. There is currently no comprehensive, user-friendly map and information about these spaces – which include green lawns, seating areas, public restrooms, fishing docks, and observation decks – making it difficult for people to understand what is publicly available and legally accessible. The Harborwalk Map will be free to the public and show all public amenities along the waterfront. “The Harborwalk and the public spaces around it belong to everyone, and in today’s tech age, having a mobile-responsive, online map is critical to people from all neighborhoods seeking to access and enjoy their public waterfront,” said Kathy Abbott, President and CEO of Boston Harbor Now.

  • 2017 Downtown Waterfront District Municipal Harbor Plan & Public
    2017 Downtown Waterfront District Municipal Harbor Plan & Public Realm Activation Plan Supplement - February 16, 2018 Harbor Garage and New England Aquarium Throughout the Downtown Waterfront planning process and the state’s consultation sessions protections and assurances for the New England Aquarium’s ongoing operations and financial viability have been a priority. Not only sustaining but enhancing the Aquarium’s mission has been a focus, as it serves as a premier civic and cultural water- dependent use in Boston Harbor which activates the Downtown Waterfront district year- round. The Aquarium’s Blueway vision to improve site conditions around Central Wharf and create better connections to the Aquarium and harbor, are objectives the MHP looks to facilitate. The Downtown Waterfront MHP addressed the promotion of the Aquarium’s interests through an amplification for the Activation of Commonwealth Tidelands for Public Use (310 CMR 9.53(2)(b) and 310 CMR 9.53(2)(c)). The amplification requires the execution of a memorandum of understanding (MOU), or other mutually agreed upon binding agreement, between the City of Boston, the Aquarium and the project proponent of the Harbor Garage to address reasonable compensation for any construction-related Aquarium visitor and event revenue losses and other matters of mutual long range interest. During the state’s consultation session several priorities have been specified by the Aquarium as necessary for the ongoing viability of the institution during and after the construction of the Harbor Garage site. The primary issues to be addressed in the MOU include provisions for visitor parking and access to the Aquarium, and financial assurances against possible loss of revenue due to reduced visitation resulting from construction related disruptions associated with the development of the Harbor Garage site.
