PROJECT SUMMARY
Audubon Circle serves as a key link in Frederick Law Olmsted’s Emerald Necklace, located at the intersection of Beacon Street and Park Avenue in Boston’s Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood. The project aims to enhance the connection between the neighborhood and the city, improve stormwater management for increased resiliency, and create a vibrant public space for both residents and visitors. Poetry inspired by birds is engraved in the site walls, deepening the connection to the site's name and its natural surroundings.
