A
Good

some
new
developments
that
will
bring
housing,
jobs,
economic
vitality
and
opportunity
to
our
city.

Today.

and

who's

in
this
project,
andrew
grace
and
other

I'm
sorry
I'm
going
to
miss
lots
of
folks
here
now.
So
thank
you
to
all
of
our
city
partners.
Who've
been
working
so
hard.
We
are
focusing
today
on
the
three
projects
that
will
be
made
possible
with
the
mass
works
grant
of
about
nine
million
dollars
coming
to
the
city
of
boston.
A
So
there
will
be
more
than
900
jobs
created
with
what
will
happen
on
this
lot
right
here:
jobs
in
construction
that
will
meet
and
I'm
told,
exceed
our
boston
resident
jobs,
policy
standards,
jobs
that
will
bring
and
create
wealth.
We're
very,
very
proud
of
the
minority-led
development
team
here
with
us
today,
making
sure
that
we
are
investing
that
wealth
right
back
in
our
communities
and
jobs
that
will
connect
arts
culture
science
to
residents
right
here
in
roxbury.
A
I
want
to
thank
so
many
who
have
put
forward
this
vision.
I
think
this
is
the
perfect
backdrop,
as
dana
had
pointed
out
to
me.
The
artists
who
created
this
beautiful
work
behind
us
who
goes
by
pro-black,
has
been
celebrated
at
the
mfa
and
will
continue
to
be
a
center
of
the
community
in
boston
and
in
roxbury.
A
A
We
can
accomplish
incredible
things
when
we
work
with
our
communities
and
across
all
levels
of
government
and
embracing,
what's
possible,
starts
with
reimagining
what
we
can
do
with
what
we
have
here
today
and
so
we're
very
glad
to
have
a
little
more
in
the
coffers
from
from
the
grants
here,
so
I'll
pass
it
over
to
secretary
connelly.
We
will
then
hear
from
our
elected
colleagues
then
from
director
brian
golden
then
from
our
development
team
and
then
we'll
close
out
with
a
group
photo.
B
Mayor,
thank
you.
It
is
so
great
to
be
with
all
of
you
here
today
the
mayor
and
her
team,
our
colleagues
from
state
and
local
government
richard
all
the
folks
are
making
these
great
projects
come
to
life.
Let
me
get
the
official
business
out
of
the
way.
B
Then
I
want
to
say
a
few
words
about
our
mass
works
program
and
about
the
projects,
but
we're
here
today
to
announce
three
awards
from
our
mass
works
infrastructure
program:
one
and
a
half
million
dollars
to
nubian
square
cents,
3.5
million
dollars
to
bunker
hill
housing
redevelopment
and
four
million
dollars
for
the
mildred
haley
infrastructure
project.
Let's
here
for
those
award
winners.
B
This
year
we're
making
56
awards
66
million
dollars
in
grants
over
the
life
of
the
baker
polito
administration,
it's
been
600
million
dollars
of
mass
works
awards
that
have
done
a
lot
of
good
around
the
state,
perhaps
most
notably
helping
to
create
21,
000
new
units
of
housing-
and
I
always
say
you
know:
mass
works
funds,
infrastructure
funds,
streets
and
lighting
utility
and
and
the
basic
building
blocks
of
development.
What
it
really
funds
at
the
end
today
is
collaboration
at
the
local
level.
B
It
lets
a
community
come
forward
and
tell
us
these
projects
are
important
for
us,
help
us
fund
them
and
move
them
forward
and
this
year
that
dialogue
about
projects
and
last
year
is
not
just
about
mass
works.
It's
now
13
different
programs
that
we
put
together
into
this
one
stop
for
growth.
The
most
streamlined
aligned
way
most
responsive
way.
B
We
can
deliver
our
great
program
to
our
cities
and
towns,
and
I
want
to
thank
some
members
of
my
team
here
today
under
secretary
ashley
stoba
and
nick
buelins
where's
nick,
who
deliver
these
great
programs
in
this
incredibly
responsive
collaborative
way
with
our
cities
and
towns.
Let
me
say
a
word
about
each
project,
so
the
housing
developments,
bunker
hill
and
mildred
haley.
In
my
now
three
plus
years
as
secretary
I've
had
the
chance
to
see
probably
about
50
different,
affordable
housing
developments
around
the
state
and
on
all
the
ones.
B
They've
seen
they're
all
a
little
bit
different
they're
all
over
massachusetts,
they're
all
different
shapes
and
sizes,
different
stages
of
development
serving
different
populations,
but
they
all
have
a
few
things
in
common.
They
are
fundamentally
really
hard
to
get
done
and
they
require
a
lot
of
creativity
and
a
lot
of
tenacity
and
a
lot
of
collaboration
from
state
partners
and
local
partners
and
developers
and
non-profits.
One
of
my
visits
by
the
way
was
last
september
to
mildred
haley,
with
bart
and
his
team,
to
see
that
one.
B
So
when
you
see
these
projects
and
see
them
up
close
and
understand
what
goes
into
them,
it
is
just
inspiring
work
and
the
idea
that
we
can
revitalize
our
public
housing
stock
and
make
these
into
vibrant
communities.
It's
really
really
important
work
and
we're
so
proud
to
support
these
projects.
The
project
here
today,
nubian
square
suns,
richard
I
went
back.
B
We
had
our
first
meeting
of
this
project
march
2nd
of
last
year,
so
it's
been
about
about
a
year
on
our
team
here,
we're
so
proud
to
support
this
project
through
massworks
through
support
from
mass
development
as
well.
What
this
project
means
in
terms
of
commercial
space,
lab
space
artist,
space,
cultural
space,
culinary
space
support
for
small
business.
It
is
a
major
major
investment
in
this
neighborhood
and
and
there's
so
many
aspects
of
the
project
I
really
like,
but
one
of
them
is
the
connection
to
the
life
sciences.
B
Economy
right
life
sciences
is,
is
one
of
our
most
important
sectors,
maybe
our
most
important
sector
in
massachusetts
and
the
idea
that
we're
going
to
help
grow
that
sector
and
make
it
more
diverse
and
provide
more
opportunities
for
people
to
get
into
life
sciences
is
really
important
work.
Let
me
just
say
in
closing
that
there's
a
lot
we
have
to
get
done
together
to
make
to
bring
this
economy
back,
to
make
sure
our
state
is
competitive
to
make
sure
our
economy
is
equitable.
B
You
know,
we've
got
to
build
a
lot
more
housing
for
a
lot
of
people.
Housing
is
unavailable
or
unaffordable.
We
got
to
build
the
workforce
of
tomorrow.
We
got
to
support
our
innovation
economy.
We
got
to
invest
in
our
communities.
We
got
to
support
our
small
businesses.
These
three
projects
today
collectively
do
all
those
things
they're,
wonderful
projects,
we're
so
proud
to
support
them
and
great
to
be
with
you
all
here
today.
Thank
you
and
congrats
to
the
award
winners.
B
With
that
is
rep
tyler
here,
no,
let
me
bring
up
rep
santiago.
C
Good
morning,
everyone
it's
great
to
be
here.
I
promise
we'll
be
quick
because
they
obviously
pick
the
coldest
day
of
the
year
to
be
out
here,
but
we're
happy
nonetheless
again
john
santiago,
state
representative
in
this
area-
and
I
couldn't
be
more
excited
to
be
here
today
with
each
and
every
one
of
you.
I
want
to
special
thanks
to
governor
baker
and
his
team
secretary
corneli
and
the
secretary
for
all
the
work
you
do.
This
sends
the
message
to
boston,
to
places
like
roxbury
that
you
care
about
this
community
and
the
economic
development.
C
I
want
to
thank
mayor,
wu's
team,
and
I
want
to
thank
your
equity-based
agenda.
I
mean
it's
the
prescription
that
our
communities
need
right
now,
I'm
looking
forward
to
partnering
with
you
for
the
years
to
come,
and
you
know
this
community
here
has
been
beset
by
a
whole
host
of
different
challenges,
but
today
is
about
roxbury
it's
about
its
people,
it's
history,
it's
about
its
future
and
its
destiny,
and
as
someone
who
has
lived
in
the
area
who
grew
up
just
a
couple
blocks
away
from
here
who
lives
just
down
the
street.
C
I'm
looking
forward
to
coming
here
when
this
is
all
built
and
generating
all
the
economic
development
that
it
will
be
and
celebrating
this
nubian
square
ascends,
particularly
its
biotech
agenda.
As
a
physician
myself,
the
need
to
train
more
black
and
brown
physicians
and
folks
in
the
life
sciences
sector.
I
couldn't
be
more
excited
about
that
and
throw
to
support
this
endeavor.
So
I
want
to
thank
you
again
for
coming
and
now
I
want
to
welcome
to
the
microphone
our
newly
elected
city
councilor.
C
D
Good
morning,
everyone
now
y'all
know
it's
too
cold
to
be
out
here.
So
let's
make
this
quick
shout
out
to
the
commonwealth
wow
on
this
level
right,
it
seems
like
a
big
accomplishment
and
you
you
know,
you
see
the
speeches
and
the
press,
conferences
and
you're,
like
that's
amazing,
wow,
we're
doing
great
on
another
scale
when
we
shout
out
to
richard
taylor
and
partners
shout
out
to
miss
kaity,
grant
and
partners
and
collaborators
and
advocates
when
you
think
about
projects
like
this,
especially
in
nubian
square,
especially
in
roxbury.
D
You
think
about
all
of
the
artists
and
all
the
industries,
all
of
the
entrepreneurs
that
are
coming
to
intersect
with
this
project
right.
It's
really
a
dream.
You
think
about
art,
space,
housing,
economic
development
and
you
say
wow,
that's
what
it
should
look
like,
but
then
all
the
hard
work
that
it
took
for
them
to
get
here,
the
bureaucratic
red
tapes
and
the
applications
and
the
arduous
long
talks
and
arguments
and
tears,
probably-
and
so
as
an
artist
myself
and
as
someone
who
grew
up
just
down
the
street
from
here
as
well.
D
I
know
that
to
get
here
it
takes
revolutionary
process
and
fight.
So
I
look
forward
to
doing
more
of
this.
I'm
so
proud
of
our
mayor
for
being
open
for
to
collaborations
and
look
forward
to
collaborating
with
our
state
colleagues
as
well,
and
thank
you
so
much
for
being
here.
Let's
do
more!
Thank
you.
E
I
love
the
way
my
sister
counselor
tanya
anderson
is
not
a
fan
of
the
you
know
the
the
procedural
stuff
that
we
do.
She
just
gets
right
to
the
point.
E
I've
asked
for
needs
for
mildred
c
haley.
He
has
had
my
back.
I
am
the
representative
for
jamaica,
plain
and
mission
hill,
mildred
c
haley
has
a
very
long
history
there,
our
residents
there
have
invested
in
that
land
for
decades
and
decades
and
they
deserve
a
return
on
that
investment.
E
Now,
four
million
dollars
might
seem
like
a
little
tiny
bit
in
that
big
chunk
of
money.
That's
required,
but
I
looked
at
the
grants
and
I
noticed
it's-
you
know
about
four
times
the
average
grant
for
that
particular
mass
works
bucket,
and
so
we
need
to
lean
even
further
on
my
group,
the
legislature,
to
make
up
that
40
million
dollars.
That's
still
required
from
the
state
to
completely
finish
this
redevelopment
and
then
with
regards
to
the
so
that
that'll
cover
about
637
units.
G
E
To
go,
and
I
need
to
I'm.
H
Thank
you,
mayor
thanks
very
much
mayor,
thank
you
to
secretary
connelly
for
visiting
with
us
and
your
team
this
morning,
thanks
to
our
partners
in
the
state
legislature
and
the
boston
city
council,
in
in
a
special
way.
I'd
like
to
thank
the
team
at
the
bpda
who's
helped
bring
us
to
this
point.
The
planners,
the
development
staff,
the
real
estate
disposition
staff
and,
in
particular,
I'd
like
to
shout
out
to
our
deputy
chief
of
staff,
dana
whiteside
who's
been
working.
H
Dana's
been
working
development
and
planning
issues
in
this
neighborhood
for
a
long
time,
but
in
particular
the
mass
work
stuff.
I've
been
at
the
agency
for
about
13
years,
and
I
feel
like
I'm
always
talking
to
dana
about
mass
works,
getting
resources
into
the
city
to
do
the
quality
developments
that
that
really
serve
the
needs
of
the
people
of
austin.
So
thanks
for
all
you
do
dana.
Over
the
past
several
years,
the
bpda
has
prioritized
public
land
for
public,
good
and
development
without
displacement.
H
That
means
not
only
supporting
affordable
housing,
economic
development
and
good
jobs,
but
also
creating
wealth
in
opportunities
for
those
who
have
historically
been
left
out
by
positive
development
climates,
as
we
gather
in
the
heart
of
roxbury
in
many
ways
the
literal
heart
of
our
city
right
here.
It
also
means
ensuring
that
those
who
live
and
work
here
benefit
from
the
opportunities
that
real
estate
development
brings.
H
In
2016,
the
bpda
kicked
off
plan
nubian
square
alongside
the
community
and
roxbury
strategic
master
plan
oversight
committee
to
determine
how
the
many
local
publicly
owned
parcels,
many
of
them
vacant
for
decades,
could
be
put
to
better
use
and
improve
the
quality
of
life
for
nubian
square
and
roxbury
residents.
The
extensive
community
engagement
process
included
over
30
public
workshops,
walking
tours
and
community
gatherings
to
listen
to
solicit
feedback
from
community
members
and
establish
a
shared
vision
for
the
future.
H
I
want
to
thank
the
many
residents
business
owners,
community
leaders
and
advocates
who
participated
in
the
plan.
Nubian
process,
your
energy,
your
insights,
your
commitment,
your
history,
are
shaping
the
future
of
this
neighborhood
right
now,
when
we
released
the
request
for
proposals
for
this
blair
lot
where
we
stand
today,
it
reflected
the
community's
vision
by
seeking
a
project
that
used
development
as
a
catalyst
to
promote
arts,
culture,
education
and
local
job
creation,
as
well
as
wealth
creation
opportunities
for
the
nubian
square
community.
H
It's
my
pleasure
now
to
turn
it
over
to
mr
richard
taylor,
representing
the
nubian
ascends
team.
Thanks.
I
Very
much,
thank
you,
dr
goldman
appreciate
it.
Thank
you
very
much
and
good
morning
such
eloquent
speakers
really
talking
about
the
process
and
the
end
product
here.
Mayor
wu
delight
for
you
to
come
again.
You've
been
here.
I
think
three
times
in
the
last
three
weeks
previously,
you
announced
40
million
dollars
of
funds
for
affordable
housing.
Six
of
those
projects
from
those
funds
were
for
nubian
square
secretary
corneli.
Thank
you
so
much
you
too
have
walked.
This
parking
lot
walked
washington
street
you've
done
a
walking
tour
of
this
square.
I
Neither
of
them
are
visitors
today
they
have
been
here
before
and
we
appreciate
their
return
and
the
resources
that
they
bring
all
the
colleagues
on
my
right
and
left
state
reps
elected
city
officials.
All
of
them
have
been
actively
involved
in
what's
going
on
in
this
square.
I
wanted
to
reiterate
a
point,
though,
that
director
golden
mentioned
the
roxbury
strategic
master
plan
oversight
committee
has
been
working
for
decades,
dana's
team
awesome.
When
those
rfps
came
out.
They
were
different.
I
I
I
As
has
been
noted
secretary
kennedy
mentioned,
it
is
the
most
powerful
economic
engine
in
this
state.
Cranes
are
everywhere
good
news.
Bad
news
is
the
young
students
and
young
kids
in
this
community.
The
boston
public
school
kids
are
not
connected.
We
were
on
the
phone
just
yesterday
with
the
dearborn
stem
academy,
john
d
o'brien
madison
park.
All
of
these
schools
in
this
area
are
going
to
be
training
right
here
on
this
site
two-year
program
12-month
program
to
get
an
on-ramp
to
the
careers
in
life
science.
I
That's
the
power
of
what
we
need
to
do
in
our
city,
if
you,
if
we
miss
this
opportunity,
if
you
think
of
disparities
that
were
laid
out
in
2015
by
the
boston
fed,
eight
bucks
and
247
they'll
be
worse,
but
we're
going
to
solve
that
problem
and
all
the
resources
here,
the
state,
the
city,
the
elected
officials,
all
have
chimed
in
been
powerful.
You
step
right
up
real
fast
to
the
game,
so
welcome
to
have
you
here
counselor,
but
I
also
want
to
thank,
I
want
to
say
one
other
thing
about.
I
What's
going
to
go
on
here
right
now,
the
square
opens
up
sort
of
7
30
closes
around
3.
soleil
closes
at
three.
You
cannot
get
a
meal
here,
a
cup
of
coffee
or
a
cup
of
coffee.
You
can
but
not
a
meal
after
three
o'clock.
This
project
is
transformed.
We
want
seven
days
a
week.
I
met
some
years
ago
with
lisa
simmons,
who
is
the
producer
of
the
roxbury
film
festival?
It
is
a
great
program.
I
The
problem
is,
eighty
percent
of
the
films
are
shown
elsewhere.
We
will
have
a
cultural
hall
here
that
seats
over
300,
the
roxbury
film
festival
would
be
in
roxbury.
That's
what
we're
talking
about.
So
let
me
just
conclude:
there
are
so
many
partners
here
at
the
city
level
at
the
state
level
I
want
to.
I
also
acknowledge
roxbury
main
street
sits
here
the
roxbury
cultural
district,
but
this
has
really
been
a
bottom-up
process.
I
Dana
devin
morgan,
your
entire
staff,
have
been
absolutely
extraordinary.
Construction
will
start
next
month
right
across
the
street.
It's
going
to
be
a
new
delhi,
cafe
haley
house,
hailey
hills,
I'm
sorry,
a
hailhouse
cafe
and
they're
going
to
be
right
on
the
street,
not
in
the
back,
so
this
square
is
on
the
move:
nubian
square
ascends.
Thank
you
very
much.
A
G
Thank
you.
Thank
you
mayor.
Thank
you
very
much
mayor
the
blair
a
lot,
I'm
gonna,
maybe
before
even
attempting
to
answer
that
question.
I
want
to
give
credit
and
kudos
to
my
colleagues
within
the
agency.
None
of
this
work,
as
has
been
stated
earlier,
none
of
this
work
happens
in
a
vacuum
or
with
a
single
person.
G
I
consider
myself
one
among
many
equals
and
among
those
equals
I
would
include
devin
quirk,
my
colleague
who's
director
of
real
estate,
morgan
mcdaniel,
who's
senior
officer
in
senior
real
estate
development
officer,
my
colleagues
at
the
mayor's
office
of
housing,
sheila
dillon,
the
great
leadership
of
director
golden
among
many
blue
lot.
G
G
Some
of
the
tough
conversations
that
we
have
around
development
and
planning
and
housing.
It
makes
it
all
worthwhile.
So
I
re-articulate
and
reaffirm,
and
amplify
the
thanks
to
colleagues
of
the
state
colleagues
of
the
city
and
colleagues
and
friends
within
this
district
residents,
business
owners
who
helped
make
this
happen.
Thank
you
all.
J
A
We
have
previously
announced
the
metrics
that
would
define
what
happens
with
our
policies
and
to
emphasize
that
the
fastest
way
for
us
to
get
through
this
pandemic
is
to
continue
getting
vaccinated,
continue
getting
boosted.
I
have,
I
think
I
have
the
numbers
off
the
top
of
my
head,
but
I'll.
Let
me
pull
out,
so
I
don't
get
them
wrong.
A
So,
if
you
recall,
the
thresholds
that
were
announced
were
five
percent
community
positivity
200,
daily
cobit,
hospitalizations
and
95
icu
capacity
once
we
get
below
all
those
three
is
when
we
will
lift
the
proof
of
vaccination
requirement
for
indoor
certain
indoor
venues
as
of
tuesday
evening.
The
city
of
boston
is
at
5.4
percent,
positivity
278,
coveted
hospitalizations
per
day,
and
we're
we've
been
at
about
90
icu
capacity,
so
we're
getting
there.
A
On
the
mask
mandate,
but
on
the
proof
of
vaccination
for
indoor
venues,
we're
waiting
until
we're
below
all
those
thresholds
to
lift
that.
A
Sure
we're
actually
in
the
process
of
working
on
a
real-time
cover,
dashboard
that
will
live
on
the
city
of
boston's
website.
It's
currently
a
feed
that
is
produced
from
all
different
sources
of
data
through
the
boston
public
health
commission.
The
three
metrics
were
chosen
by
our
boston
public
health
commission
because
they
represent
the
strain
that
is
on
our
hospital
system
from
kovid
19,
both
in
the
availability
of
icu
beds.
A
And
the
last
metric
is
community
positivity,
which
reflects
the
transmission
rate
once
that
transmission
rate
is
low
and
once
the
strain
on
our
hospital
system
has
eased,
that
is
when
we
will
be
able
to
lift
some
of
our
covet
protections
and
the
fast
again
it
is.
It
is
on
all
of
us
to
keep
those
numbers
moving
down
and
we've
been
doing
a
great
job,
seeing
vaccination
tick
up
since
then,
we
hope
to
continue
that.
A
We
are
so
the
hope
is
that
we
will
get
through
this
surge
and
stay
low
and
stay
stable,
but
our
intention
is
not
to
have
a
kind
of
very
often
fluctuating
situation.
These
three
thresholds
are
really
seen
as
an
off
switch
and
an
on
switch
when
you're
off
you're
below
you
need
to
get
below
all
three
to
turn
off
the
switch
and
as
we
watch
the
numbers
as
we're
watching
the
wastewater
data,
we
hope
that
we'll
be
able
to
anticipate
and
apply
these
same
metrics
for
the
next
surge.
A
Our
our
intention
is
that
when
we
are
sort
of
fully
above
all,
three
that
will
represent
another
major
surge
in
boston
knock
on
wood.
We
won't
come
to
that,
but
the
pandemic
continues
to
evolve.
We
continue
to
see
new
variants
developing
and
many
of
the
epidemiologists
I've
spoken
to,
and
I'm
in
contact
with
also
predict
that
we
very
well
may
have
another
surge
next
fall
next
winter.
A
So
we
are
looking
to
transition
the
city
and
our
decision
decision-making
to
what
will
be
a
long-term
situation
living
with
coven
and
managing
it,
and
hopefully
that
won't
have
to
mean
crisis
and
emergency
moving
forward.
But
again
it
very
much
depends
on
getting
our
vaccination
and
booster
rates
higher.
K
A
The
proof
of
vaccination
for
indoor
requirements
will
be
lifted
once
we
are
below
all
three
of
those
thresholds
for
the
mask
mandate.
Our
boston
public
health
commission
would
like
to
see
some
additional
trends
of
ensuring
that
we
are
on
a
downward
trend
and
ensuring
that
we
are
past
that
so
they
will
likely
move
separately
downward
trends
across
those
three
metrics.
A
We
are,
we
are
going
to
be
hosting
several
vaccination
clinics
through
winter
vacation.
We
know
that
this
is
the
fastest
way
to
close
gaps
across
our
city,
and
we
still
see
some
very
concerning
disparities,
especially
racial
disparities.
When
you
look
at
vaccination,
pediatric
vaccination
rates
among
boston
students,
and
so
the
mass
mandate
is
a
different
set
of
considerations
for
schools,
because
we
know
this.
A
That
hasn't
been
triggered
yet
that
so
what
went
into
effect
as
of
today's
tuesday,
as
of
today,
is
the
proof
of
vaccination
requiring
two
doses,
but
again
once
we're
below
those
thresholds,
the
the
policy
will
will
be
lifted.
A
This
is
the
big
focus
for
our
boston,
public
health
commission,
especially
around
the
february
school
vacation
that
is
coming
up
next
week.
There
will
be
lots
of
events
and,
at
the
children's
winter
festival
downtown,
there
will
be
a
big
focus
with
opportunities
for
vaccination
and
boosters
as
well,
and
so
we're
working
very
closely
with
the
school
system
and
with
other
organizations
to
try
to
close
those
gaps
as
much
as
possible.
While
families
have
some
time
and
are
looking
for
activities
over
the
next
week,
you.
K
A
That
is
the
the
privilege
and
the
responsibility
that
we
bear
as
a
center
city
for
the
entire
region.
We
are
proud
to
be
service
providers
and
to
have
so
many
of
our
safety
net
hospitals
here
in
the
city,
and
we
have
an
obligation
to
ensure
that
those
hospitals
and
those
front
line
health
care
workers
who
have
given
so
much
during
this
pandemic
have
the
support
they
need,
so
that
we
can
begin
to
ease
the
strain
that
they've
been
facing
for
far
too
long.
Now,
any.
