Downtown - Boston,
Massachusetts
Boston's center of business and
government combine with the Boston Common and the Public Garden to
form a dynamic downtown. Downtown also serves as a sanctuary for
shoppers, offering everything from large department stores to cozy
boutiques. Home to many of Boston's most historic sites such as
Faneuil Hall, downtown Boston will soon benefit from two innovative
plans designed to enhance and enliven this area, the Rose Fitzgerald
Kennedy Greenway and the Crossroads Initiative. The Greenway will
beautify this area by weaving twenty-seven acres of green space into
the fabric of the city. Crossroads will introduce a new set of 21st
century street standards through downtown and reunite the
surrounding neighborhoods to Boston Harbor and each other, with the
Greenway as the centerpiece.
