What’s in Bloom

Spring is finally here. So get outside and see what’s in bloom on the Greenway. Crocus and Daffodils are waking the North End from a long winter sleep.

What’s In Bloom

The snow has melted, the ground has thawed and some of the first flowers to emerge in chilly New England gardens are blooming on the Greenway.

Hello Winter Break!

Make your way to one of the Greenway’s neighboring attractions for an escape from the winter grind.

Luck for the New Year

Chinatown Main Street, an initiative of the City of Boston and the National Trust for Historic Preservation is bringing a small flower market to Chinatown Park on the Greenway this weekend in celebration of the Chinese New Year.

Volunteer Appreciation

181 individuals devoted over 500 hours of service to the Greenway over the past year. Through 38 separate events, volunteers assisted with horticulture, programs and general office needs. The Greenway drew a diverse group of committed individuals that included young and old, students and corporate teams, residents and commuters.

After the Snow Storm

While most of us enjoyed a snow day at home during Wednesday’s storm, there were many hard at work trying to keep the streets and sidewalks of Boston safe. The Greenway maintenance staff braved the elements to make sure our park paths were accessible, safe and navigable.

A Big Bright Lights Thank You!

The unveiling of Bright Lights for Winter Nights was a success! The parks came alive with music, light and joy to celebrate the winter solstice. A huge THANK YOU to our sponsors, volunteers and staff for making this evening of winter wonder possible.

What’s in Bloom

The task of keeping the park green this winter falls to conifers such as Pines, Firs and Spruces, and broadleaf evergreens such as Rhododendrons, Andromeda, Boxwoods, Hollies, and Inkberries.
