  • Part 5 • Resource Protection Mission
    Open Space Plan 2008-2014 Section 7 Analysis of Needs Section 7.1.2 Resource Protection HARBOR OPEN SPACE Section 7 Analysis of Needs Section 7.1.2: Resource Protection HARBOR OPEN SPACE INTRODUCTION: A PLANNING FRAMEWORK This chapter presents a planning framework that has been designed to guide the continuing revitalization of Boston Harbor’s open space and Harborwalk systems. In keeping with the intent of this Open Space Plan, it recommends the enhancement of existing open space facilities while identifying opportunities to be realized by future programs and projects along the shoreline and on the islands. The framework builds on and extends the work of public agencies, including the Boston Redevelopment Authority (BRA), the Boston Conservation Commission (BCC), the Massachusetts Department of Environmental Protection (MADEP), the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation (DCR), and the Massachusetts Port Authority (Massport), as well as non-profit organizations and waterfront property owners, in an effort to promote and provide public access to waterfront open space. The proposed framework reflects the larger vision of the City to share equitably among all the city’s residents the resources of the harbor for recreational as well as economic benefits. Boston Harbor’s clean-up project has fostered a resurgence in water- related activities and a desire for broad public access to the water’s edge. Boston’s municipal harbor planning efforts, the product of a decade-long community-based effort by the city, articulates this vision through four comprehensive planning policies: • Universal access to opportunities on the harbor; • Year-round activation of the waterfront through public, cultural, and water-dependent uses; • Enhancement of maritime activities; and • Growth that is appropriately designed and brings vitality.

Ryan. Three scenarios for the Boston Public Library’s twenty-six branches were presented and discussed. Following the discussion, BPL President Amy E. Ryan en- dorsed Option 2, the plan that closes four branches and maintains library hours. “The Boston Public Library needs to save money, stabilize and begin to move forward,” said BPL President Amy E. Ryan. “Keeping twenty-two branches open is the most prudent option. It preserves as many branches as possible, permits us to fill critical vacancies and allows us to explore partnerships.” These were the three options discussed: Option 1: All twenty-six branches remain open, eight lead libraries (plus Central Library in Copley Square) maintain existing hours of operation, eighteen branches paired and hours reduced.

    Exhibit GR-10 Open Space Plan 2008-2014 Section 7 Analysis of Needs Section 7.2.6 Community Open Space & Recreation EAST BOSTON Section 7 Needs Analysis Section 7.2.6: Community Open Space & Recreation EAST BOSTON THE SETTING History Originally a five-island group, East Boston was connected to Boston with the establishment of the first ferry in 1637. In the 1833, William Sumner established the East Boston Company to develop this area as one of the first planned communities in Boston. From 1840 to 1865, East Boston began to expand rapidly, becoming a major site for the construction of world-famous clipper ships by well known builders such as Donald McKay and Samuel Hall. Thus, East Boston became a significant transportation center and shipping port. Attracting a large number of immigrants seeking employment in the shipbuilding industry, its population began to grow dramatically. With the Cunard Line establishing a port of entry in the Maverick Square area by 1839, East Boston became the Ellis Island of New England. In 1905, the first subway tunnel to downtown was opened. The development of Logan Airport in 1923, the Sumner Tunnel in 1934, and other transportation related projects severely impacted the neighborhood. Local industrial facilities began to decline in favor of airport related development and many families left for the suburbs. Today, despite such pressures, East Boston has stabilized as a neighborhood and in the recent years has had many new investments geared toward public facilities. The third harbor tunnel (aka Ted Williams Tunnel) has helped reduce airport bound traffic on residential streets.

    PROPOSAL Main Street (Route 9) Complete Streets Design Services Submitted to: The City of Northampton Submitted by the Team of: Greenman-Pedersen, Inc. & Brown, Richardson & Rowe August 14, 2018 Engineering | Design | Planning | Construction Management August 14, 2018 Mr. Wayne Feiden, FAICP Director of Planning & Sustainability City of Northampton 210 Main Street Northampton, MA 01060 RE: Proposal – Main Street (Route 9) Complete Streets Design Services Dear Mr. Feiden: Greenman-Pedersen, Inc. (GPI) is excited about the opportunity to continue working with the City of Northampton to provide Complete Streets Design Services for Main Street (Route 9). This opportunity resonates with us as this is a unique opportunity to work with the City of Northampton to help transform Main Street into an attractive multimodal street that expresses Northampton’s environmental values and supports social gathering and the downtown community. We offer the city a robust team of leaders in street design and engineering tailored to the specific needs of Northampton. Key reasons we feel we are uniquely qualified to champion this project for the city include the following: ▪ Firm Experience: GPI has taken numerous projects through the MassDOT project development and design process - we know what will be required every step of the way and can assist Northampton to navigate this process while developing a design for Main Street that will be funded, constructed and serve as a lasting source of pride for the community. Simply put, GPI knows what it takes to bring a project like this to completion. We are also aware that what Northampton wishes to achieve is not a typical MassDOT project.
