Fort Point Channel Parks

In the Fort Point Channel area, the Central Artery/Tunnel Project has built approximately 4,200 linear feet of new and reconstructed seawalls and added close to 2,500 linear feet of new Harborwalk.  The Harborwalk links open spaces at Cabot Cove, Vent Building 1, Mt. Washington Avenue Park, the Federal Reserve Bank and BECo Wharf.  Vent Building 1 Park centers around an art piece made from a portion of an historic railroad bridge that had existed near the site.  Three new Channel bridges offer pedestrian crossings at Broadway, Dorchester Avenue and the Dorchester Branch Railroad Bridge.  Further into South Boston, parks have been created at Wormwood Street and on the harbor at Vent Building 6.
