The Boston Redevelopment Authority is pleased to announce today that
the Massachusetts Department of Transportation has transferred
approximately $191,000 in funds to be used for the redesign and
construction of Chinatown Gateway Park, also known as Mary Soo Hoo
Park.
Back in October 2009, Mayor Menino and BRA Director John Palmieri
joined the Chinatown community along with state transportation
officials to announce that a design team, Stephen Stimson Associates,
had been selected for the renovations. The BRA is in the midst of
hosting community meetings to solicit feedback in order to finalize the
design before the work begins. The next public meeting is expected to
be held on February 25, 2010. Construction is expected to start this
summer. Visit the BRA here.
