Boston's Birch Street Pop-up Plaza Debuts!

This past week, our team set up shop in Boston for the installation of the six-day Birch Street Pop-up Plaza in Roslindale Village. The temporary installation prototyped, in real-time, the locations of future plaza elements including paving, seating, and trees.  Through in-person and online surveys, observation, and conversation we gathered feedback from the community. The input is directly informing the final design of the permanent Birch Street Plaza, slated to be constructed this fall. For more information on the pop-up plaza and the project’s future, check out Roslindale Village Main Street’s website here. Thank you to the incredible network of Roslindale and City of Boston volunteers who made the installation and feedback gathering possible!
