From YouTube: Imagine Boston 2030 Final Launch
Description
After collecting feedback from more than 14,000 residents, Imagine Boston 2030 holds a Launch Party and Showcase in Uphams Corner in Dorchester.

A
A
A
A
This
process
will
shape
the
city
for
many
years
to
come,
but
also,
I
have
to
say,
boston-
is
in
a
very
unique
place.
Today
we
have
seen
development
as
never
before
we
can
say
that
economy
is
thriving,
yet
we
still
face
many
challenges
in
rosebury
and
north
of
chester.
For
people
to
know
we
shouldn't
have
an
unemployment
rate
three
times
higher
than
the
rest
of
the
city
or
no
child
going
to
a
school
should
be
homeless
or
nobody
who
has
worked
hard
to
decrease
crime
and
beautify.
A
Imagine
boston,
2030
will
be
a
new
compass
that
will
help
us
all
of
us
to
move
forward
and
address
these
problems.
I'm
very
confident
that
that
will
be
the
case.
I
know
that
our
city
leadership
is
working
hard
in
partnership
with
communities
to
eliminate
these
issues
that
they
will
continue
doing
in
the
future.
A
I
I
have
to
say
that
one
of
the
things
that
I
most
like
in
today's
city's
leadership
is
that
we
are
working
on
solutions,
and
I
want
to
mention
that
we
have
been
working
shoulder
to
shoulder
today
like
to
make
to
make
land
available
for
our
community.
You
are
standing
today
in
a
community
land
trust.
If
you
didn't
know,
this
is
a
community
land
trust
today
and
the
community
will
decide
the
future
of
this
community
land
trust.
B
Thank
you
juan
I
want
to.
I
want
to
thank
one
and
everyone
at
w
street
initiative
for
their
great
work,
and
I
know
one
mentioned
earlier.
John
burroughs
couldn't
be
with
us
today.
He's
traveling
home,
but
john
was
the
director
of
the
delta
street
neighborhood
initiative
as
well
and
and
the
plan
that
we're
unveiling
today
has
a
lot
of
input
from
a
lot
of
great
people,
and
I
want
to
thank
rebecca
emanuel
who's
going
to
speak
in
a
few
minutes.
B
Sheila
dillon,
chief
of
housing,
john
barrows,
chief
of
economic
development,
senator
linda
josina,
foreign,
our
state
senator.
We
know,
linda
our
senator,
who
grew
up
in
this
neighborhood.
B
David
leonard,
the
president
of
our
library,
we
have
we
have
brian
golden
from
from
the
boston
planet
development
agency.
We
have
gina
fandaca
from
transportation.
We
have
joe
finn
from
the
fire
department,
the
best
trained
fire
department
in
the
country,
ron,
dorsey,
education,
dan
coe
chief
of
staff.
I
could
go
on
and
on
and
on
about
all
the
people
that
have
input
in
this
in
this
document,
but
also
really
with
the
community.
B
This
is
a
community
driven
document,
and
I
want
to
thank
you
for
that.
We
have
members
of
the
concert
generals
from
our
international
community
here
too
many
to
name
but
there's
a
few
countries
represented
here.
Why
are
the
kind?
Why
is
it
important
of
the
consuls
here?
Because
we
are
an
open
and
united
city
who
invites
everyone
and
welcomes
everyone?
Just
like
upper's
corner
has
for
generations
and
decades.
B
We've
been
talking
a
lot
lately
about
how
cities
must
lead
in
in
a
time
of
national
tension
and
division,
people
are
looking
to
cities
for
answers.
Cities
are
the
hubs
of
diversity,
they're
places
of
opportunity
and
they're
a
place
where
we
can
actually
help
change
people's
lives
by
the
policies
we
do
and
how
we
work
together.
B
B
we'll
be
growing
twice
as
fast
as
the
rest
of
the
nation
and
we're
more
diverse.
Now
than
we've
ever
been
we're
the
world's
leading
employers
and
innovators,
they're
flocking
here,
boston,
massachusetts,
28
of
our
residents,
are
foreign
born.
48
percent
of
our
residents
are
first
generation
like
me
when
you
think
about
our
city.
Over
75
percent
of
our
city
is
either
first
generation
or
immigrant.
So
so,
when
people
think
about
why
they
come
to
the
city
of
boston,
they
come
here
because
of
our
diversity.
B
B
Today,
we're
releasing
the
full
image
of
boston's
plan,
the
first
citywide
master
plan,
true
citywide
master
plan
over
50
years.
Imagine
boston,
2030
is
built
on
our
strengths
and
shares
them
more
widely.
This
plan
is
about
lifting
people
up
embracing
our
diversity
and
connecting
people
to
good
jobs.
That's
what
this
plan
is
about.
It's
about.
How
do
we
do
that?
How
do
we
move
our
city
forward?
We
have
a
blueprint
finally
to
be
able
to
try
and
do
that,
we're
not
talking
about
it.
We're
laying
it
out
how
it's
going
to
happen.
B
B
So
as
we
look
and
we
see
how
the
streets
are
changing,
whether
virginia
street
or
cushing
street,
cushing,
ave
or
stoughton
street
or
may
or
hancock
street,
we're
making
sure
that
we
continue
to
move
forward
our
streets
in
this
neighborhood
in
this
community,
we're
investing
in
all
the
elements
of
a
thriving
neighborhood,
we're
investing
in
transportation,
we're
investing
in
affordable
housing,
we're
investing
in
open
space,
we're
investing
in
arts
and
culture,
and
so
much
more.
Those
that
live
in
this
neighborhood
know
know
that
this
this
hub
right
here,
this
upper
corner
was
a
gateway.
B
It
was
a
gateway
to
the
west
of
the
city
of
boston.
It
was
a
gateway
to
the
north
of
the
city
of
boston.
Many
people
of
different
nationalities
when
they
first
came
to
this
country,
would
go
through
this
intersection
right
here
of
dudley,
columbia
and
stoughton,
and
that
hasn't
changed
today
the
faces
might
be
different,
but
the
immigration,
the
immigrants
are
still
here
and
they're
still
going
to
that
intersection,
because
this
still
is
an
important
gateway
in
our
community.
B
For
example,
right
now
we're
sit
standing
next
to
the
old
dorchester
trust
building
years
ago.
Was
a
booming
building?
It
doesn't
look
like
a
lot
right
now,
but
someday
soon,
I'm
happy
to
announce
this
will
be
the
site
of
the
new
weapons
corner
library
right
here
on
hancock
street,
on
columbia,
road.
B
Now
I
don't
know
if
anyone
from
the
neighborhood
remembers
where
the
library
was
before
is
a
bird
street,
but
it
used
to
be
down
columbia.
Road
in
the
old
doctor's
office
downstairs.
I
think
it
was
a
doctor's
office
or
dentist
office
and
they
moved
it
out
of
the
air,
and
then
they
had
one
more
stop
and
then
it's
at
bird
street,
what's
going
to
be
invested
in
this
building
next
to
us,
is
18
million
dollars
of
a
new
brand
new
library.
Coming
to
this
neighborhood.
B
B
B
When
I
was
walking
over
here,
a
woman
grammy,
she
lived
on
tuttle
street
when
I
was
eight
years
ago
and
she
was
worried
about
affordable
housing,
as
many
of
us
in
this
community
are
we're
also
worried
about
making
sure
not
just
in
this
neighborhood
but
other
neighbors
throughout
the
city
of
boston.
When
you
get
a
chance
to
review
the
plan
and
you're
gonna
see
it's
a
comprehensive
plan
that
touches
almost
every
community
every
neighborhood
in
our
city.
B
B
B
And
we
had-
and
we
also
had
an
incredible
young
woman
working
in
the
office.
Her
name
was
rebecca
emanuel
and
she
was
working
on
some
other
aspects
of
other
plans.
There
was
an
opportunity
for
us.
We
were
looking
for
a
chief
planner
in
the
city
of
boston
and
we
went
we
looked
to
sarah
and
said
sarah.
We
need
you
to
to
become
the
head
planner
of
the
city
to
work
or
brian
golden.
B
The
problem
was
imagine.
Boston.
2030
was
a
big
plan
for
me
as
a
city
and
for
us
as
a
city
and
a
legacy.
Who
is
the
right
person
to
leave
this
plan
and
without
hesitation,
rebecca
emmanuel
will
jump
to
the
top
of
the
list.
There's
a
conversation
between
sarah
dan
cole,
myself
and
she
has
give
me
two
men,
we're
talking
two
minutes
all
right
and
she
has
not
missed
a
beat.
She
has
put
an
incredible
plan
together.
B
She
has
worked
extremely
hard.
Her
whole
team
at
the
dudley
street
neighborhood
initiative.
There
was
adults
in
one
room
talking
about
the
future.
There
was
kids
putting
stickies
on
the
wall
talking
about
what
they
want
to
see
in
the
future.
Ladies
and
gentlemen,
rebecca
emanuel,
the
director
of
imagine,
boston,
2030.,.
C
I
can't
tell
you
how
thrilled
I
am
to
be
here.
This
is
a
moment
we've
been
looking
forward
to
for
a
while.
So
we're
going
to
start
with
a
question
here
think
back
think
back
about
15
years.
How
many
of
you
had
a
particular
vision
for
the
type
of
city
you
wanted
to
live
in?
Let's
see
a
show
of
hands,
I
see
some
hands,
I
see
some
hands
and
how
many
of
you
did
that
change?
C
what
are
the
things
that
we
envision
now
and
how
is
that
going
to
change
what
we're
doing
so,
let's,
let's
take
a
moment
and
think
back,
let's
think
of
it.
It's
almost
like
a
story.
Think
back
several
decades,
a
couple
of
decades
ago,
boston
didn't
look
like
it
looked
like
today.
C
In
fact
its
population
was
declining,
people
were
relieving,
jobs
were
leaving
and
things
for
the
city
of
boston
looked
tricky.
It
wasn't
totally
clear
what
the
future
of
the
city
was
going
to
be.
That
was
the
last
time
we
had
a
city-wide
plan.
Well
today,
let's
look
around
people
are
moving
to
boston.
Everyone
wants
to
be
here
to
start
their
new
company
or
to
move
their
new
headquarters.
Here.
We've
got
more
and
more
population
growth
immigrants
from
around
the
world
from
the
us
and
locally
and
mayor
walsh
did
something
really
impressive.
C
C
So
something
important
happened
when
mayor
walsh
asked
this
question.
He
didn't
just
ask
the
question
he
turned
to
residents
and
said:
what
do
you
want
to
see
for
the
city
of
boston?
Their
priorities
should
determine
what
our
city
becomes,
and
I
want
to
tell
you
that's
something
remarkable.
He
didn't
just
turn
to
the
people
in
city
hall
or
to
the
incredible
academics
and
experts
that
we
have
in
great
numbers
in
boston,
although
he
definitely
turned
to
them
too.
C
Children
like
right
here
are
tied
up
in
the
city,
and
our
residents
not
only
told
us
the
priorities,
the
goals
we
were
going
for,
but
they
also
told
us
the
steps
they
wanted
to
see
to
take
it
there
and,
interestingly,
they
told
us
about
the
trade-offs
that
we
need
to
make
when
the
time
for
trade-off
comes
and
they
looked
at
the
draft
and
they
said.
Actually,
the
map
should
look
a
little
bit
more
like
this
and
it
changed
because
of
what
they
said.
C
C
C
An
east
boston
resident
told
us
that
suffolk
downs
was
full
of
great
underutilized
land
for
mixed-use
development
that
could
blend
with
the
existing
east
boston,
neighborhood
and
we're
striving
to
do
exactly
that.
A
dorchester
resident
told
us
to
improve
the
arts
district.
We
have
starting
with.
Let
me
hear
it
oppam's
corner
and
we're
as
excited
about
investing
in
the
strand
and
the
art
resources,
as
I
hope
she
is
so
imagine.
C
C
So,
in
order
to
in
order
to
achieve
everything
in
imagine
boston,
I
have
one
ask
of
you:
if
you
have
a
particular
dream
in
mind,
a
thing
you
want
to
see
happen,
we
want
your
partnership.
We
want
to
do
this
with
you,
we're
going
to
turn
to
you
and
ask
you
hey.
This
is
what
we're
starting.
Please
help
us
make
this
happen
and
in
particular
one
of
the
things
that
I
know
a
lot
of
you
care.
A
lot
about
is
affordable
housing
development
without
displacement.
C
D
Thank
you
rebecca
first.
I
just
want
to
thank
the
mayor
and
the
very
small
small
dedicated
imagine,
boston
staff,
but
most
of
all
the
communities
of
boston
that
really
gave
us
great
direction.
During
this
process.
Boston
made
it
very
very
clear
that
developing
housing
to
serve
all
of
his
residents
and
avoiding
displacement
were
critical.
They
were
the
most
pro
one
of
the
most
critical
components
in
imagine
boston
and
they
were
critical
if
we
were
really
going
to
have
the
healthy
inclusive
city
that
we
all
dream
about,
we
know
that
boston's
population
is
growing.
D
So
we
know
we
need
to
increase
our
housing
stock
and
the
imagine
boston
plan
helps
the
city
do
this
by
identifying
areas
of
the
city
that
can
accommodate
this
growth
neighborhoods
that
can
be
expanded
and
new
neighborhoods
that
can
actually
be
formed
and
created
areas
of
the
city
that
are
underutilized
by
good
transit.
Imagine
boston
is
the
road
map
and
that's
why
I'm
so
excited
about
imagine
boston.
It
really
is
telling
us
where
we
should
be
doing
great
development
and
the
plan
clearly
states
that
we
need
to
create
more
than
just
luxury
housing.
D
We
need
to
use
our
collective
resources
to
expand
housing
for
our
low
and
middle
income.
Households,
families
and
elders
will
create
more
affordable
housing
by
using
inclusionary
development
density
bonuses,
publicly
owned
land
and
affordable
housing
resources,
including
recently
passed
cpa,
but
residents
were
very
very
clear
on
one
point:
while
we
grow
our
way
out
of
this
problem,
we
need
to
be
mindful
that
our
existing
residents
are
not
displaced.
D
D
So
in
closing,
I'm
really
pleased
to
say
that
I'm
I'm
excited
that
the
mayor's
got
put
his
weight
behind
this
plan.
The
staff
at
city
hall,
working
with
all
of
you,
are
really
dedicated
to
its
principles
and
I'm
very
very
hopeful,
I'm
very
confident
that
we're
going
to
grow
a
boston
that
we
all
can
live
and
share
in.
So
with
that,
I
will
close,
but
I
want
to
now
introduce
senator
linda
dorcina
foreign
she's,
known
she's.
No
stranger
to
this
neighborhood,
in
fact,
linda
and
I
worked
in
this
neighborhood
many
many
years
ago.
D
She
grew
up
a
few
streets
away,
but
she's
really.
She
cares
about
the
city
at
large
and
she
certainly
cares
about
making
sure
that
boston
is
affordable
for
everyone.
So
with
no
further
ado
linda.
Thank
you.
E
Thank
you
sheila
good
afternoon,
everyone
good
afternoon,
ephem's
corner
all
right.
It
is
so
exciting.
Isn't
it
to
be
here
today?
I
want
to
thank
our
mayor,
mayor
marty,
walsh
for
having
the
vision
to
put
forth
boston
2030..
That
did
not
happen
by
accident
when
he
became
mayor
for
50
years.
We
did
not
take
a
look
at
ourselves
as
a
city
to
say
where,
where
do
we
want
to
be?
What
do
we
want
to
be
as
a
city
and
who
do
we
want
to
represent
as
a
city?
So
we
want
to
thank
our
mayor.
E
I
want
to
thank
the
agencies,
all
the
city
agencies
that
are
here,
sheila
dylan,
her
team
at
d
and
d,
so
many
people,
john
barrows,
who
could
not
be
here,
who
grew
up
just
down
the
street,
doing
so
much
work
together
collaboratively
to
support
all
of
you,
the
residents
here
in
our
great
city.
It
is
wonderful
to
be
in
ephem's
corner.
I
grew
up
in
upham's
corner.
I
went
to
school
at
saint
kevin
school
strand,
theater,
we're
right
here
under
the
theater.
E
It
is
incredible
that
this
investment
is
going
to
happen,
a
public
library,
a
new
library
right,
although
we
have
it
up
the
street
downstairs.
You
know
the
library
right.
The
children's
libraries
downstairs
these
staircases,
the
swirling
staircases
that
you
have
to
get
to
downstairs
to
participate.
So
this
is
going
to
be
quite
incredible
in
terms
of
the
vision
that
is
happening
right
here
in
epcoms
corner
I'll,
say.
E
Today's
announcement
celebrates
the
hard
work
that
has
been
happening
in
every
boston
neighborhood
since
2015
and
before
that,
but
over
14
000
of
our
residents
participated
in
this
landmark
study.
That
is
no
small
feat
and
we'll
have
a
direct
hand.
In
the
shaping
of
the
future
of
our
great
city-
and
that's
what
it's
about
today,
so
I
thank
you
all
for
being
part
of
this
important
process
very
important
and
to
have
the
mayor
and
his
team
and
everyone
here
and
kicking
off
boston
2030
in
terms
of
the
location
of
implementing
the
imagine
boston.
E
2030
plan
is
energizing
and
just
incredible
because
upham's
corner
deserves
it
right,
but
our
man
knows
that
because
he's
a
dorchester
guy-
and
he
knows
the
importance
of
this
community
as
we
sat
there,
he
talked
about
how
he
remembers:
shopping
down
the
street
with
his
mom
on
dudley
street
right
and
remember
coming
to
oppam's
corner.
So
as
I
look
out
into
this
incredible
community,
I
thank
juan
and
diaz,
and
I
and
d-
and
I
so
I
grew
up
on
howard
avenue
right
so
off
of
dudley
street,
so
still
part
of
oppam's
corner.
E
My
parents
are
still
up
there.
I
see
incredible
leaders
you're
going
to
hear
from
bob
haas
shortly
that
I'm
going
to
introduce
who's
been
doing
tremendous
work
in
our
community
in
ephem's
corner.
You
know
I
want
to
thank
upfront
and
main
streets
for
their
vision
and
their
hard
work
and
val
in
the
work
that
they're
doing
that's
right.
Give
it
up
for
main
street.
E
E
All
right,
I
mean,
has
been
in
it
for
a
long
time,
folks
that
I've
been
able
to
watch
and
been
inspired
by
and
as
we
talk
about
the
vision
and
as
we
talk
about
everyone's
input
in
this
incredible
plan,
we
know
the
development
that
happens
and
strategies
that
go
into
place
comes
from
you
as
residents.
We
know
that,
and
I
want
to
recognize
someone
that
right
there
on
dudley
street
right
off
of
dudley
street
on
non-quit
street.
E
You
know
ruth
and
the
non-quit
civic
association,
where
they
have
the
dorchester
dragon,
give
it
up
for
ruth,
because
I
remember
the
work
that
this
community
did
and
they
have
a
dorchester
dragon.
So
you
need
to
go
check
it
out
on
dudley
street.
Okay
and
the
person
who
designed
the
dragon
is
nancy
shone.
Who
did
make
way
for
ducklings
right
on
the
boston
common?
It
is
the
same
person
who
developed
that
dragon
for
us.
So
thank
you
ruth
for
your
work
over
all
the
years,
and
so
this
is
an
incredible
time.
E
This
is
a
rich
neighborhood.
An
incredible
community.
Dorchester
is
amazing.
All
of
the
city
is
amazing,
but
as
a
dorchester
kid
I
can
just
say
that
album's
corner
is
in
the
middle
of
it
all
from
meeting
house
hill
right
up
the
street,
where
you
have
the
first
school
public
school
in
the
country,
the
mather
school
from
the
north
burying
ground
right
right
here
on
album's
corner
on
columbia,
road,
which
is
the
second
oldest
burial
ground
in
the
country
and
the
resting
place
of
the
mathers
to
down
to
dudley
street
and
the
dsni
triangle.
E
You
know
we're
all
connected
to
jones
hill
meeting
house
hill.
You
know
all
of
us
are
connected.
I
want
to
recognize
another
leader,
a
former
state
rep
who
laid
the
groundwork
five
years
ago
and
did
a
lot
of
work
and
we
grew
up
down
the
street
from
each
other
and
that's
former
representative
carlos
henriquez
is
here
with
us.
Thank
you
for
your
work
over
the
years,
and
so
we
know
this
is
a
community
that
is
filled
with
richness
and,
as
the
mayor
said,
our
city
is
filled
with
diversity.
E
The
mayor
being,
first
generation
american,
his
parents
from
ireland
me
being
first
generation
american,
my
parents
from
haiti.
We
are
a
community,
a
city
that
is
interwoven
together,
intricately
bringing
communities
from
our
culture,
individuals
from
all
backgrounds,
to
understand
that
this
is
one
boston
and
that
we
care
about
issues
that
impact
our
families
doesn't
matter.
E
But
we
also
know
the
importance
of
education
and
the
importance
of
working
as
a
community
working
with
our
incredible
police
officers
that
are
here
working
with
our
community
or
organizations
to
make
sure
that
when
our
families
are
going
through
tough
times
that
when
our
children
are
going
through
tough
times
that
we're
going
to
be
there
to
give
support
and
encouragement
and
to
make
sure
the
resources
are
there
protecting
our
families.
So
they
can
continue
to
thrive
and
grow
in
our
great
city.
And
that's
what
mayor
walsh
has
done.
E
E
And
now
I
mentioned
him
briefly,
but
you
know
bob
hass
needs
no
introduction.
Okay,
if
you've
been
in
this
neighborhood
for
a
while
right.
If
you
grew
up
in
this
neighborhood,
you
know
the
work
of
bob
haas
in
dsni
in
dni
in
upham's
corner
in
working
with
businesses
and
our
small
businesses,
which
is
important
to
our
economy.
You
know
bob
haas
has
been
there
knocking
on
doors
when
businesses
didn't
want
to
come
up
here
when
banks
were
walking
away
from
us.
E
E
F
Isn't
this
a
great
party,
everybody
isn't
this.
You
know
the
most
remarkable
thing
and
let
me
tell
you
why
it's
remarkable,
as
I
see
it,
if
I
had
decided
that
I
wanted
to
assemble
all
the
people
from
all
the
parts
of
my
life
that
went
into
bringing
this
neighborhood
up
to
where
it
is
today,
I
wouldn't
have
been
able
to
get
you
all
together,
like
this
party
does
and
that
really
you
know
we
have
to
thank
our
mayor,
marty,
walsh,
who
grew
up
in
dorchester
for
for
doing
that,
but.
F
F
I
just
watched
all
the
things
that
happened
here
and
what
I
can
tell
you
if
you're
younger
is
that
this
was
a
neighborhood
in
which,
when
you
said,
let's
try
this
or
let's
do
that.
You
would
get
an
answer.
Oh
that's
impossible.
F
F
What
I
had
had
been
privileged
to
be
part
of
was
organizing
up
from
the
ground
and
teamwork,
and
I
think
that's
really
what
this
neighborhood
is
really
an
example
of
we're,
like
the
gold
standard
for
organizing
up
from
the
ground
and
and
and
teamwork,
and
so
everybody
here
out
here,
you're
part
of
a
team
you're
part
of
a
an
amazing
team
that
has
resulted
in
this
celebration
being
in
from
corner
the
place
where
they
said
everything
was
impossible,
and
so
I
want
you
all
to
give
yourselves
a
round
of
applause.
F
F
And
I
want
you
all
to
view
this
as
the
beginning
of
teamwork,
where
every
one
of
you,
you
really
just
look
into
your
heart
and
and
think
you
know
how
am
I
part
of
this
teamwork
going
forward?
How
am
I
expressing
my
voice?
How
am
I
making
it
possible
for
others
who
work
with
me
to
make
the
difference
against
things
where
somebody
might
say?
F
We
decided
we
would
have
a
role,
we
would
have
a
hand
and
we
brought
the
whole
community
together
around
that
and
and
our
our
elected
officials
supported
us,
and
here
we
are
doing
what
some
people
would
have
said
was
impossible.
So
once
again,
thank
you
for
coming.
Thank
you
for
all
of
all
of
our
guests
on
the
stage
here
and
for
the
many
behind
the
scenes
who
have
done
so
much
to
make
this
a
very,
very
joyous
event.
Thank
you.
B
We're
almost
done
now
I
want
to
thank
bob.
I
want
to
thank
bob
for
his
years
a
commitment.
This
neighborhood
he's
been
involved
in
this
community
for
40
years.
As
far
as
I
can
remember,
he's
been
part
of
this
neighborhood.
I
want
to
thank
senator
foreign
who
spoke
passionately
about
the
community
and
what's
happened
here,
and
she
brought
up
a
point
where
she
talked
about
representative
enriquez.
B
You
know
five
years
ago,
when
he
got
elected
to
the
house,
he
came
in,
we
started
talking
and
his
whole
idea
was
about
creating
opportunities,
creating
housing,
creating
making
sure
people
had
a
chance
and
and
part
of
this
vision
is
what
he
started
many
years
before
that
and
before
him,
marie
st
fleur
and
before
maurice
st
flora,
it
was
charla,
golovich
and
alejandro.
So
we
have.
We
have
some
great
representation
in
that
seat.
B
I
want
to
thank
you
we're
in
upwards
corner
today,
because
of
the
model
of
how
we
can
invest
in
our
neighborhood,
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
investing
in
sullivan
square
in
charlestown,
reedville
and
high
park.
East
boston,
waterfront,
four-point
channel.
All
of
these
different
neighbors
that
we're
talking
about
today
are
areas
that
we're
looking
at
and
how
do
we
grow
our
city?
How
do
we
make
sure
our
city
stays
affordable?
How
do
we
make
sure
our
city
stays
a
place
that
people
want
to
live
city-wide?
B
We
are
thinking
about
how
to
ensure
bostonians
have
stable
housing
support
our
neighborhoods
with
transit
and
green
space,
making
sure
that
we
don't
have
a
bus
running
up
running
up
w
street
or
carmen
or
columbia
road.
Once
every
hour
we
want
to
make
sure
it
becomes
a
transit,
a
hub
transit
in
our
neighborhoods.
B
We
want
to
make
sure
our
communities
are
walkable
and
healthy
and
bikeable.
So
when
people
want
to
bike
to
take
their
bikes
around
the
city,
they're
safe
spaces
to
be,
we
want
to
support
our
small
businesses.
We
have
some
small
businesses
on
the
other
side
of
this
fence.
Right
now
help
the
small
businesses.
B
B
There's
only
that's
the
only
way
we
can
meet
our
challenges
by
looking
at
them
together
through
an
equity
lens,
and
this
plan
has
been
built
by
people.
This
plan
is
not
my
plan.
This
is
our
plan
in
two
days
we're
going
to
release
our
city's
resiliency
strategy.
It
will
guide
our
work
in
connecting
people
to
opportunities.
B
B
One
roslindale
resident
told
us
they'd
like
to
see
housing
density
close
to
public
transit
and
near
walkable
main
streets.
They
want
their
neighborhood
to
be
outside
their
front
door.
Pan
told
us
they
like
to
bring
jobs
closer
to
where
people
live
and
encourage
a
healthier
lifestyle
with
more
people,
biking
and
walking
to
work.
B
B
But
we
can't
do
any
of
this
work
alone.
Boston
needed
a
vision
for
our
residents
to
set
the
course
and
identify
key
initiatives.
Now
the
city
needs
partnerships
to
make
them
real.
I
want
to
take
a
moment
to
recognize
the
dudley
street
neighborhood
initiative.
We
wouldn't
be
here
today
without
the
dedicated
community
partners
like
them.
B
B
We
believe
in
the
power
of
this
plan
that
will
change
the
city
for
the
better.
So
we
need
our
state
state
partners
to
sit
down
with
us
to
talk
about
making
sure
that
we
do
have
a
good,
strong,
21st
century
transit
system.
That's
what
the
people
of
boston
deserve.
That's
what
the
people
of
boston
want.
B
Since
we
launched
imagine
boston
2030,
we
never
stopped
listening
and
putting
ideas
into
action.
This
is
a
living
document.
It
will
evolve
as
our
city
evolves.
This
document
will
not
go
on
the
shelf
tonight
and
sit
there
for
the
next
50
years
and
somebody
can
open
it
50
years
from
now
and
say:
oh,
this
happened.
This
didn't
happen
that
might
have
happened.
That
should
happen.
That's
not
what
we're
all
about!
B
So
our
work
is
far
from
being
done.
Today
is
the
launch
of
imagine
boston
2030,
but
it's
just
the
beginning:
we've
aligned
imagine
boston
2030
with
our
city
capital
plan,
so
we
can
continue
to
implement
on
our
projects
we're
sharing
metrics
on
key
issues,
so
we
can
see
how
we're
tracking
over
time,
I'm
asking
everyone
to
visit
imagine.boston.gov
share
your
ideas
with
us
help
us
continue
to
shape
this
plan.
We
look
forward
to
building
boston's
future
with
you
and
enjoy
the
day,
and
thank
you
all
everyone
for
being
here
with
us
today.
G
All
right
everyone,
the
party,
does
not
stop
so
while
we're
at
it.
Let's
try
and
get
some
refreshments,
it's
not
thursday,
but
it
is
tuesday.
So,
let's
make
it
go
up
on
a
tuesday,
we've
got
water
just
on
this
end,
we've
got
the
beer
garden
and
the
back,
I
know
some
of
you
probably
don't
know.
There
is
a
beer.
