Franklin Park: Past, Present, Future

April 30, 2022 @ 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Franklin Park: Past, Present, Future

As the geographic heart of the city of Boston, Franklin Park serves as the meeting ground of the Roxbury, Dorchester, Mattapan, Roslindale, and Jamaica Plain neighborhoods, drawing in visitors from throughout the region and around the world.

For over a century, Franklin Park has been a lively and beloved center of recreation, gathering, and discovery for the Boston community. Designed by Frederick Law Olmsted as part of the Emerald Necklace, Franklin Park remains Boston’s largest green space.

In celebration of Boston Design Week, the 200th birthday of Frederick Law Olmsted, and World Landscape Architecture Month, join us outside for a walking tour of Franklin Park with the landscape architects leading its renovation. Together, we will look ahead to its future.
