Walkshop: Union Square: Organizing Public and Private Investment

Walkshop: Union Square: Organizing Public and Private Investment

Join us for a tour of Union Square, Somerville’s historic and future downtown, as well as a key center of civic life, international culture and the arts economy.

In order to make the case for the MBTA Green Line light rail extension, the City has worked to prepare and implement an aggressive strategy for equitable, transit-oriented development. It’s also used a robust public infrastructure investment program to guide private development in a progressive direction, with affordable housing, workforce and small business development, transportation demand management, and public space investments required. Judge for yourself whether the early results are matching the community’s vision.

Mode: Walking, Transit
