PROJECT SUMMARY
Audubon Circle is an important link in Frederick Law Olmsted’s Emerald Necklace at the intersection of Beacon Street and Park Avenue in Boston’s Fenway-Kenmore neighborhood. The project seeks to strengthen the connection between the neighborhood and the city, introduce new stormwater measures for improved resiliency and create a vibrant public space for neighbors and visitors alike. Poetry inspired by birds is engraved in the the site walls to deepen the site’s connection to its name.
