From YouTube: Imagine Boston 2030 Plan Draft Release
Description
With the help of more than 12,000 Boston residents, Mayor Walsh unveils the draft plan for Imagine Boston 2030. The plan addresses key issues facing every corner of the city from income inequality, the growing population and climate change with the goal of making sure the City of Boston is accessible for everyone in the future.
A
We're
going
to
try
and
do
today
give
you
an
overview
of
the
invention,
possible
fast
document,
which
is
called
expanding
opportunities,
and
what
I'd
love
to
do
today
is
just
to
make
sure
that
you
have
every
question
that
you
want
to
clarify
this
to
what
it
is.
This
document
really
meant
it's
actually,
so
they
were
in
an
incredible
moment
of
opportunity,
which
is
what
this
document
seeks
to
capture
and
what
I
want
to
do
is
share
with
you.
What
that
opportunity
in
and
what
we
can
do
this.
A
A
Think
what
we
had
difficulty
with
was
the
microphone
so
we'll
see
how
this
works
is
that
working
well,
okay,
excellent
yeah,
absolutely
so
wide
range
of
topical
plans
and
all
of
these
come
together
into
our
strategic
citywide
plan
called
imagine
Boston.
The
goal
is
that
all
of
these
components
actually
add
up
to
be
larger
than
the
sum
of
their
parts.
So
what
are
we
going
to
show
you
today
going
to
tell
you
about
what
the
goals
are
for
type
of
city?
We
want
to
be
in
20-30
the
context
that
brought
us
to
those
goals.
A
What
are
the
actions,
the
initiatives
that
we're
going
to
take
to
do
those,
and
then
how
do
those
come
together
physically
in
actual
geographical
places,
and
what
kind
of
changes
do
we
need
to
make
in
order
to
properly
implement
them?
So,
let's
start
here,
it's
orient
for
a
moment
in
our
trends.
First
Boston
is
growing.
We
grew
in
terms
of
population
twice
as
fast
of
the
nation
between
2010
and
2014.
A
Secondly,
we
have
an
incredibly
productive
economy.
Boston
worker
is
almost
a
third,
more
productive
than
the
national
worker,
but
not
all
of
those
gains
have
been
fully
captured
in
Boston.
One
thing
that
you
may
know
well
is
that
our
household
incomes
are
about
the
same
as
the
nation,
but
our
homes
are
about
two
and
a
half
times
as
expensive
and
part
of
what
that
does.
Is
that
can
sometimes
cause
stress
for
our
residents.
A
A
The
other
thing
that
we
know
looking
forward
is
that
we
are
coping
with
a
changing
climate
in
boston
is
the
fourth
most
exposed
city
nationally,
and
a
lot
of
our
economic
centers
are
on
the
water.
So
what
you
see
on
the
left-hand
side
are
the
types
of
changes
that
we're
likely
to
see
on
the
right-hand
side
is
a
map
of
sea
level
rise
into
the
future?
The
other
thing
that
we
know,
if
you
look
back
about
five
years
10
years,
it
was
going
to
be
hard
to
anticipate
the
types
of
technology
changes.
A
Thank
you
that
we
have
the
way
that
we
get
around
the
city
is
changing
everything
from
hub
way
to
ride
shared
a
car
share
and
the
way
that
we
use
our
city
is
changing.
What
will
that
mean
going
forward?
We
have
to
think
about
the
things
that
we
can't
anticipate
now
and
plan
to
be
agile.
So,
if
you
step
back
for
a
moment,
part
of
what
we're
doing
for
imagine
Boston
is
trying
to
plan
for
the
city
that
we're
going
to
be
planning
for
the
future
of
rather
than
planning
for
where
we
are
now.
A
So,
let's
just
pause
for
a
moment.
What
kind
of
future
is
it
that
we
want?
We
took
this
question.
We
brought
this
to
our
residence.
12,000
residents
told
us
the
type
of
future
they
want
in
2030,
and
here
is
what
we
heard.
We
heard
that
we
want
to
encourage
affordability,
reduce
displacement.
We
want
to
improve
quality
of
life.
We
also
want
to
increase
access
to
opportunity
and
drive
inclusive
economic
or
to
prepare
for
climate
change,
and
we
also
need
to
invest
in
our
infrastructure,
our
open
space
and
our
arts
and
culture.
A
So
if
this
is
our
starting
point
as
to
where
we
want
to
be
what
are
the
concrete
actions
that
we
can
take
in
order
to
make
sure
that
we're
able
to
live
in
that
city
in
14
years,
so
we're
at
this
incredible
moment
of
opportunity,
which
is
actually
one
of
the
things
that
makes
me
really
excited
about
this
plan?
Boston
is
growing
we're
adding
jobs
or
adding
people,
but
I
want
you
to
notice
it's
on
the
left
hand
side
of
this
screen.
These
numbers
are
trending
up
and
they
stay
trending
up
our
population.
A
Our
jobs
are
growing
in
order
to
capture
the
full
benefits
of
that
growth.
We
want
to
think
about
how
to
guide
that
growth
and
from
a
Pure
Land
perspective.
We
know
that
we've
got
a
limited
land
budget
as
to
where,
where
where
we
can
put
that
growth.
So,
as
we
think
about
this,
there
are
three
broad
types
of
places
where
we
might
think
about
this
growth
and
investment
occurring
on
the
left
hand
side
you
see
existing
neighborhoods
right.
A
This
is
a
type
of
triple
decker
that
I
was
born
in
second,
we
have,
our
commercial
cores
are
tall
areas
and
third,
we
have
this
interesting
category
of
neighborhood
edges
here
you
should
think
about
your
rail
yards,
our
auto
body
shops.
Maybe
our
self
storage
places
the
missing
teeth
in
our
neighborhoods
and
how
we
would
grow
in
each
of
these
areas
would
be
different.
So
if
you
plot
these
areas
across
the
city,
this
is
sort
of
what
it
looks
like
with
the
red
being
our
commercial
core.
Our
job
centers
are
yellow.
A
Being
our
neighborhood
edges
are
sorry,
our
new
existing
neighborhoods
and
our
purple
being
that
sort
of
interstitial
tissue,
our
neighborhood
edges.
How
would
you
grow
in
these
neighborhoods?
So
this
is
part
of
what
imagine
Boston
sets
out
it's
not
out
of
vision
and
guiding
principles
for
the
type
of
growth,
an
enhancement
that
we
would
see
in
our
neighborhoods
and
hear
what
I
want
you
to
imagine
is
an
active
Main
Street,
where
people
are
coming
out
to
be
with
each
other.
A
Where
is
enough
density
to
support
the
kind
of
really
active
sort
of
local
economy
that
you
have
on
your
main
streets,
but
very
contextually
sensitive
that
reaffirm
eats
each
neighborhood,
distinct
identity
seconds?
We
think
about
our
mixed-use
job
centers.
A
Our
job
centers
are
in
many
ways
our
consummate
walkable
neighborhoods
are
already
very
well
accessed
by
transit
and
they
can
really
accommodate
increases
in
residential
use
and
increases
as
as
commercial
course
as
well.
And
so
what
you
can
imagine
here
is
this
growth
in
the
through
the
space
of
times
that
we
use
our
commercial
core
not
just
on
weekdays,
but
also
on
weekends
evenings
and
mornings,
as
it
becomes
more
of
a
residential
hub.
A
Do
you
think
about
those
two
areas
of
growth?
They
don't
on
their
own,
accommodate
all
the
amount
of
growth
that
you
can
imagine
that
we
will
take
so
then
the
question
becomes:
where
else
do
we
grow
and
what
we
begin
to
look
at.
Are
these
sort
of
these
edge
areas,
and
here
you
see,
sort
of
a
sprinkling
of
bread,
crumbs,
smaller
areas
at
our
edge
areas
and
then
larger
clusters,
our
growth.
These
are
areas
that
you
can
imagine.
A
We
don't
have
all
the
answers
right
now
as
to
how
to
protect
them,
but
we
are
putting
in
place,
invest
ments
as
to
how
to
do
that
and
how
to
plan
for
that.
You
have
more
details
in
that
coming
and
climate
ready
Boston.
So
if
we
step
back
for
a
moment
and
think
about
these
three
big
places
where
we
can
grow
and
enhance
our
neighborhoods,
our
commercial
cores
and
our
edge
areas,
the
next
question
is
sort
of
what
kinds
of
other
places
in
our
city
really
become
the
center
point
of
our
city
going
forward.
A
What
we
turn
to
is
a
waterfront.
The
waterfront
has
always
I'd
entered
a
core
central
component
of
who
we
are
as
a
city.
Boston
was
founded
on
the
shaman
Peninsula,
and
our
economic
hubs
have
always
been
on
the
waterfront
and
they
continue
to
be
there.
So
looking
forward,
what
kind
of
waterfront
can
we
have?
We
want
to
think
about
investments
in
open
space
in
the
public
realm.
You
want
about
think
about
supporting
our
existing
and
emerging
job
and
housing.
Centers
that
proactive
climate
planning.
A
So
I'll
tell
you
a
little
bit
about
each
here
on
the
waterfront
many
ways.
We
know
that
the
economic
mobility
connecting
to
the
water
are
very
closely
tied.
We
want
to
think
about
not
only
providing
access
to
the
waterfront
for
people
who
live
and
work
there,
but
from
all
neighborhoods
of
the
city
of
Boston.
We
want
to
think
about
connecting
all
of
our
open
spaces
in
our
public
realm
along
the
waterfront.
A
So
here
we
have
a
map
of
our
existing
and
emerging
job
centers
and
our
housing
centers.
What
you
can
see
is
that
almost
all
of
these
are
very
proximate
to
water,
and-
and
so
this
is
a
core
component
of
how
we
think
about
our
waterfront,
really
as
this
place
of
productivity
and
given
that
we
also
want
to
make
sure
that
we
are
doing
proactive
climate
protections.
A
This
is
a
flood
map
from
about
20
70s
or
later,
given
a
projected
modeling,
but
three
feet
of
sea
level
rise,
and
so
we
think
that
by
getting
out
in
front
of
that,
we
can
actually
do
a
lot
of
this
work
in
advance.
These
three
areas
or
things
that
are,
that
really
work.
Well,
together,
as
you
think,
about
our
green
spaces
and
open
spaces
and
our
proactive
climate
planning,
those
can
become
synergistic,
as
we
also
think
about
them
with
our
job
centers.
A
A
There's
also
difficult
transportation
connecting
to
our
core
job
centers
and
those
reinforced
by
both
historic
city
policies
and
and
market
dynamics
has
meant
that
these
areas,
I'm
getting
signal
that
I
should
be
louder.
Can
you
hear
me
the
these
are
areas
that
have
matts
like
this?
What
if
what?
If
we
manage
to
address
those
core
underlying
components,
would
these
maps
look
different?
So
that's
what
will
step
through
right
now?
A
We
think
that
we
can
generate
networks
of
opportunity,
especially
in
these
areas,
by
targeted
investment
investment
in
strengthening
the
connections
between
our
neighborhoods
and
our
job,
centers
investments
in
open
space
culture
and
the
public
realm,
and
having
targeted
economic
mobility
and
anti
displacement
policies.
So
here
you
see
a
bunch
of
circles
that
are
in
a
ring.
This
is
our
jobs
ring
when
we're
talking
about
connecting
the
fairmount
corridor
area
better
to
these
jobs.
Overall,
second
thing
we're
talking
about,
is
truly
investing
in
our
open
space,
our
culture
and
public
realm
in
these
areas.
A
This
provides
the
ability
for
our
residents
to
truly
take
and
sort
of
take
advantage
of
the
assets
that
we
have
and
then
because
we
want
these
kinds
of
investments
really
to
benefit
our
communities
that
exist
and
benefits
future
residents.
We
know
that
we
need
to
invest
in
anti
displacement
efforts
and
also
in
economic
mobility
component
of
sorry
initiatives,
so
that
our
residents
of
the
future
are
able
to
truly
take
these
investments
and
make
sure
that
they
become
part
of
their
lives.
A
We
don't
have
this
dynamic
happening
anywhere
else,
so
one
thing
that
I
hope
you
notice
here
is
that
these
types
of
initiatives
require
the
integration
of
initiatives
across
a
wide
range
of
different
topic
areas,
and
these
initiatives
actually
came
from
our
residents.
Our
residents
suggested
almost
every
initiative,
you'll
see
in
the
imagined
boxing
plan,
and
they
not
only
suggested
them,
but
then
they
wrote
long
sort
of
thoughts
about
how
they
could
be
better
and
they
raided
them
on
the
sort
of
Amazon
scale
of
one
through
five
star.
A
This
plan
of
imagine
Boston
really
rolls
up
a
whole
bunch
of
initiatives
that
are
being
laid
out
in
a
great
deal
more
detail
through
topical
plans.
That's
everything
from
our
resilience
and
racial
equity
initiatives
go
boston,
20-30,
which
is
a
transportation
plan
and
climate
ready
Boston.
So
what
I'll
do
here
is
I'll
pause
for
a
moment
since
I've
said
a
lot
of
things
and
take
a
few
questions
here
and
then
I
think
the
mayor
will
come
in
and
also
provide
some
thoughts.
D
A
How's,
this
okay,
okay,
so
your
question
was
around:
how
do
all
these
plans
integrate
practically
so
we've
done
a
whole
range
of
different
things
and
we've
mapped
out
all
the
plan,
all
the
sort
of
potential
initiative
areas
and
how
they
might
interact
with
each
other,
whether
that's
on
a
geographic
basis
in
different
areas
of
the
city.
In
terms
of
the
timelines
implementation,
some
elements,
you
might
think
that,
if
you're
able
to
time
them
together,
you're
actually
able
to
capture
more
benefits.
A
So
a
great
example
of
that
is,
as
we
think,
about
some
of
our
climate
planning
on
a
district
scale
and
our
areas
in
which
we
might
grow
being
able
to
bake
those
in
from
the
beginning
is
incredibly
helpful,
and
then
we've
also
thought
a
lot
about
sort
of
how
this
works
in
terms
of
making
sure
that
all
of
the
different
components
of
initiatives
are
pulling
in
the
same
direction.
In
order
to
achieve
the
five
goals
that
happened
overall,
so
we're
thinking
of
about
it.
E
So
with
the
plans
that
we
have
on
going
with
Plan
Dorchester
Avenue
plan,
JP
rocks
plan
Dudley
square,
we
working
groups
where
we're
bringing
across
disciplines
all
of
those
resources
so
that
we
can
address
the
concerns
and
challenges
that
communities
are
facing
across
all
of
our
policy
domains.
So
I
think
that
in
the
most
practical
sense,
you'll
start
to
see
the
implementation
in
those
concrete,
specific
planning
areas
where
we're
able
to
bring
all
of
these
different
initiatives
and
policies
together
to
address
the
full
range
of
issues.
F
Tomoo
you're
the
glue
really
interested
in
the
idea
of
more
development
into
the
edges
of
the
city
of
Santa
Mary's
there
in
suffolk,
downs
or
refill.
How
do
you
I
don't
want
to
swim?
You
know,
like
domination
kind
of
get
but
like
how
you
get
its
practical
matter
yeah.
How
do
you
attract
development
to
those
corners
of
the
city,
that
kind
of
have
to
get
to
you
and
how
does
that
work?
Interestingly,.
E
Many
of
the
expanded
areas
that
Rebecca
show
during
the
presentation
are
also
in
close
proximity
to
transit,
so
while
suffolk,
downs
or
readville
feel
like
they're
far
away,
they
also
are
well
positioned
in
close
proximity
to
our
existing
infrastructure,
so
they're
areas
where,
as
you
build
out
that
infrastructure
and
continue
to
invest
in
it,
you'll
have
robust
connections
back
all
across
the
city.
That
was
one
of
the
key
components
was
important
in
thinking
about
where
and
how
we
grow
in
the
future.
E
E
Clearly,
we
need
to
be
creative,
innovative
and
how
we
think
about
funding
and
I
know
that
that's
something
that
Rebecca
and
chief
Sweeney
have
also
been
thinking
about
is
they've
been
approaching
this
thinking
about
how
we
can
have
alternative
financing
structures,
how
we
can
think
about
value
share
with
private
development.
All
things
that
others
here
can
speak
more
eloquently
to
as
well.
C
E
A
This
is
a
very
interesting
way
to
do
panels
since
we're
right
here,
so
a
whole
range
of
different
different
components.
So
one
thing
that
I
want
to
make
sure
that
I
note
here
is
that
we
are
we're
in
a
draft
plan
phase.
A
So
actually,
what
we're
trying
to
do
is
solicit
more
comments
from
our
residents
about
how
they
feel
about
the
initiatives
we
put
out
so
as
part
of
that
we're
going
to
have
walks
throughout
the
city,
for
example,
walking
the
route
of
the
completion
of
the
emerald
necklace
or
a
ferry
tour
with
our
chief,
so
that
our
residents
can
talk
directly
to
our
Chiefs
about
what
it
is
that
they
want
to
see.
That's
in
the
near
term
over
the
longer
term
and
we've
got
a
whole
range
of
forward-looking
metrics.
That
can
help
us
track.
H
H
Didn't
realize
I
was
walking
into
such
a
formal
setup,
so
this
is
just
for
the
press
by
the
way,
so
you
can
see
that
we're
serious
about
this
now
I
wonder
what
I
want
to
thank,
first
of
all,
I,
wouldn't
think
Rebecca
and
Sarah
who
styled
this
process,
Thank
You
Rebecca
for
taking
this
over
and
all
the
different
folks
that
had
something
to
do
with
putting
this
draft
plan
together.
Most
importantly,
I
want
to
thank
over
12,000
and
I
apologize.
H
Together,
we
set
a
goal:
we've
identified
actions
we
need
to
take
and
reaching
these
goals,
particularly
with
more
affordable
housing
and
public
transportation,
something
that
in
some
ways
is
within
our
means
here
in
the
city.
But
this
this
imagine
Boston
2030
plan
really
isn't
just
about
us
as
a
city.
It's
about
the
whole
area,
what
we
can
do
collectively
together
Boston's
at
a
unique
point
in
our
history,
our
population
is
growing.
In
the
past
five
years,
we've
grown
two
times
faster
than
the
rest
of
the
nation
and
I.
H
We
announced
a
compact
with
the
regional
mayor's
talking
about
climate
change
and
talking
about
the
the
tent
of
what's
happening
now
in
a
national
level
in
politics.
But
how
do
we?
How
do
we
address
that
in
the
next
four
years?
But
what
this
plan
does?
It
really
looks
into
the
future
and
how
do
we
dress
in
the
future
in
the
city
of
Boston?
H
This
is
what
the
plan
does.
Is
the
draft
I
want
to
highlight
the
word
draft
just
so
we're
clear
to
all
the
press.
I
know
that
we
cover
it
in
great.
No
one.
Thank
you
for
that.
This
is
a
living
document.
It's
not
complete
we're
going
to
be
talking
about
it,
we're
going
to
be
taking
ideas
and
concerns
and
suggestions
from
residents
we're
also
going
to
every
step
along
the
way.
H
We're
going
to
be
continued
to
take
this
input
in
and
be
guided
by
what
people
in
Boston
say
when
we
launched
this
plan,
I
said
it
wasn't
mighty
Walsh's
plan,
it
wasn't.
Sarah
Myers
is
playing
at
the
time
or
Rebecca
manuals
plan
or
John
Barros
was
playing
a
joke
fens
plan.
This
is
the
city
of
Boston's
plan.
It's
about
what
we
want
to
see
in
our
city
in
the
future.
H
It's
something
that's
important
for
us
and
that's
why
it's
important
to
have
complete
community
support
and
not
support,
but
involvement
in
this
eventually
support
will
be
nice,
but
involvement
in
this
plan,
as
we
move
forward
I
invite
everyone
to
explore
the
plan.
There's
certainly
a
lot
to
read
here:
I,
actually
not
to
be
written
or
printed,
but
I
invite
the
press
to
to
look
at
the
plan
and
to
say
what
you
think
is
missing
in
the
plan
if
there's
something
there,
because
this
isn't
just
our
city
at
just
city
as
well.
H
So
please
don't
you
know
you
can
write
about
whatever
you
want
about,
but
make
sure
you
input
your
plan,
the
key
areas
that
that
that
I
think
that
identifying
this
plan
are
enhancing
the
vitality
of
our
neighborhoods.
You
can
take
that
comment
and
go
many
different
ways
with
it:
encouraging
mixed-use
job
centers
throughout
the
city
of
Boston,
providing
spaces
for
new
housing
and
new
jobs,
helping
to
create
a
sustainable
waterfront
for
future
generations.
H
Thinking
about
all
those
different
themes
that
we're
working
on
here,
this
gives
us
a
road
map
how
to
connect
historically
to
underserved
neighborhoods,
to
opportunities
and
in
20-30
some
of
those
underserved
neighborhoods
could
look
very
different.
So
as
we
as
we
took
the
plans
of
each
of
the
individual
plans
that
we're
doing,
we
wrap
it
into
one
big
plan.
We
also
looking
at
the
future
of
those
communities
and
how
do
those
communities
in
some
ways
change
for
the
better
but
don't
lose
their
identity.
Today's
who
they
are.
H
We
also
want
to
make
sure
that
this
plan
will
help
us
create
an
anti
displacement
Packers
to
help
people
in
their
houses,
something
that
we're
struggling
with
every
single
day
about
how
do
we
keep
folks
to
be
able
to
live
in
their
homes
and
their
neighborhoods?
We
want
to
make
sure
the
benefits
of
boston's
growth
and
successes
I
felt
by
everyone,
not
by
a
few
some
of
the
things
that
I've
heard
over
my
entire
time
in
in
public
life,
but
also
about
how
do
we
truly
grow
as
an
equitable
city
across
for
everyone.
H
I'm,
proud
of
the
hard
work
that
went
into
this
plant,
it
covers
many
different
areas
from
housing
to
parks,
open
space
to
climate
change,
the
odds
and
culture
to
so
much
more
things
that
people
have
been
working
on
for
a
long
time.
Imagine
Boston
is
certainly
a
truly
group
effort,
evident
by
all
the
folks
that
are
in
this
room
today
and
many
people
that
we
couldn't
get
in
the
room.
H
What
we
wouldn't
have
been
enough
room
for
everyone
else,
we
have
many
cabinet
chiefs
are
going
to
talk
about
their
work
if
they
haven't
already
talked
about
their
work,
they're
going
to
talk
about
their
work,
but
I
truly
want
to
thank
all
the
work
that
went
into
this
plan.
This
is
a
comprehensive
plan.
Last
time
Boston
did
a
plan
was
in
the
1950s.
The
result
of
that
plan
was
a
driving
City.
The
result
of
that
plan
was
a
skyline
that
many
of
us
saw
today.
H
If
you
live
outside
the
heart
of
the
city
is
you're
driving
in
on
the
highway
or
coming
on
on
the
train,
and
you
looked
at
the
skyline
that
came
out
of
the
plan
in
1950.
It's
unlimited
ability
what
might
come
out
of
this
plan
in
20-30.
This
city
is
going
to
be
very
different
as
we
move
forward
and
we
want
to
make
sure
as
we
grow
as
we
change.
We
change
and
grow
for
everyone.
So
with
that
I'll
take
a
few
questions.
If
any
of
those
questions
for
me,
yes,
I
some.
I
Of
your,
you
know,
outlines
there
and
you
expanding
the
court
says,
encourage
development
is
a
big
part
of
the
story.
I'm.
H
I
mean
I
think
we
have
to
look
at
the
plan
also
talks
about
looking
at
how
do
we?
How
do
we
decide
what
area
is
out?
One
of
those
over
developments
are,
we
talked
about
growth
zones
and
we
launched
growth
zones.
In
response
to
that,
we
also
had
a
conversation
about
why
that
circle
we
have
to
identify
other
places
in
the
city
where
we
could
possibly
grow
and
expand.
You
know
with
47
square
miles
as
a
city.
I
How
do
we
talk
about
over
development,
but
how
do
we
continue
to
develop
and
grow
as
a
city
while
simultaneously
protecting
the
national
park
system
that
runs
through
the
city?
I
know
that
they're
sort
of
much
of
it
is
sort
of
state
managed.
So
there's
kind
of
an
issue
of
you
know
he's
whose
job
is
it
really
to
protect
the
parks?
So
if
you
could
just
speak.
H
To
that,
at
all,
I
mean
as
far
as
parks,
the
city,
the
city.
We
have
our
own
park
system.
We
shouldn't
leave
work
collaboratively
with
the
National
Park
System.
We
were
at
cleverly
with
the
Department
of
Recreation
conservation.
As
a
matter
of
fact,
in
the
last
three
years,
I
believe
we've
created
more
open
space
than
we
had
three
years
ago
and
we're
looking
at
other
areas.
I
think
we
pride
ourself
on
ninety-seven
percent
of
the
bostonians
are
within
a
10-minute
walk
of
a
park.
H
We
want
to
enhance
that
number,
so
I'm
not
concerned
about
as
we
grow
taking
over
parkland.
I
don't
think
it's
mine,
certainly
not
my
intention
or
any
mirror.
I
think
that
will
stand
in
this
position,
whether
past
or
future
would
ever
consider
using
park
space
for
floyd
developments.
You
know
in
order
to
be
a
thriving,
healthy
City.
A
component
of
this
is
also
the
environment,
climate
change
and
we
want.
We
have
to
enhance
open
screen
space
if
we
can,
at
all.
B
They're
in
terms
of
growth,
the
improvement
of
neighborhoods
oftentimes
can
really
lead
to
Jenna
fication.
We
talked
about
a
displacement
efforts.
Can
you
speak
a
little
bit
more
about
you
know
what
can
be
done
to
keep
this
city
actually
affordable?
People
who
live
here
that
it's
not
just
going
to
become
a
place
where
all
the
wealthiest
can
afford
to
live
great.
H
Question
in
the
long
term,
obviously
the
plan
looks
at
that
and
talks
about
that
and
hopefully
will
address
that
in
the
short
term.
One
of
the
reasons
why
we
launched
a
housing
plan
in
October
of
2014
was
not
to
create
high-end
housing.
We
do
a
pretty
good
job
of
doing
that
ourselves.
We
don't
need
to.
We
don't
need
a
road
map
to
build
high-end
luxury
housing.
H
What
we
do
need
is
a
roadmap
to
build
workforce,
low
income
housing
in
the
city
of
Boston,
and
it's
important
for
us
that
for
every
unit
of
low-income,
modern
income,
housing
that
we
we
built
in
the
city
of
Boston,
that's
another
opportunity
for
people
to
to
stay
here
and
grow
in
our
city.
God
bless
you.
In
the
last
time.
In
the
last
18
months,
with
22,
significant
things
have
happened:
we've
changed
the
inclusionary
development
to
eighteen
percent,
which
which
gives
us
more
money
to
be
able
to
do
more
around
affordable
housing.
H
In
last
Tuesday,
the
voters
of
Boston
overwhelmingly
supported
the
Community
Preservation
Act,
which
allows
us
to
get
at
least
up
to
16
to
20
million
dollars
a
year
for
affordable
housing,
open
space
and
historic
preservation,
and
to
go
back
to
the
question
right
before
you
with
the
with
the
with
the
National
Park
System.
The
CPA
can
help
us
with
some
of
the
historic
landmarks
we
have
in
the
city,
so
they
don't
become
in
jeopardy
of
being
torn
down
and
something
new
built
there.
So
we've
done
some
incredible
short
and
not
credible.
H
H
Sure
we
can
tell
that
at
this
moment,
but
I
do
know
that
that
reports
that
I've
read
from
shale
and
Sheila
can
probably
just
a
better
than
I
do
it
seems
so
we
have
stabilized
rents
to
some
degree
and
have
stopped
seeing
those
large
spikes
and
rents
and
signs
to
stabilize
the
market.
That's
something
that's
important
for
us
to
do,
because
I
think
people
would
be
in
this
place
because
they
can't
afford
the
rent
or
the
mortgage
and
we're
trying
to
in
some
of
the
actions
we've
taken
a
year
ago.
H
H
Look
at
it
as
crossing
taxpayers,
I
think
some
of
it.
Some
of
it
is
through
development.
Some
of
it
is
overall
extended
period
of
time.
I,
don't
think
you
can
necessarily
put
a
price
tag
on
something
and
say
this
plan
is
going
to
cross
X
amount
of
billions
of
dollars.
I
think
that
there's
a
lot
of
partnerships,
we
have
certainly
the
federal
government
when
it
comes
to
some
of
the
protections
we
need
for
storm
surges
and
rising
sea
tag
when
it
looks
to
housing
and
innovation,
things
like
that
I
mean.
H
Obviously
the
federal
government
is
not,
as
involved
in
housing
is
I'd
like
it
to
be
so
I
think
you
can't
put
a
per
se
a
price
tag
on
it
today
and
and
some
of
this
this
is
this
is
a
plan
over
over
many
years,
and
this
is
the
plan
on
into
the
future.
So
you
can't
put
what
a
price
tag
today
would
be
put
on.
It
would
be
completely
different
in
20-30,
2040,
2050,
tempers.
F
H
Need
to
do
it
now,
I
mean
we
need
to
do
it
now.
It's
like
this
isn't
something
new.
This
is
something
that
you
know.
I,
think
that
we're
played
out
in
the
presidential
elections
take
a
little
bit
away
from.
This
is
that
people
are
angry,
that
Congress
and
Senate
weren't
able
to
act.
I
mean
we
have
it.
H
We
have
a
major
infrastructure
problem,
United
States
of
America
right
now,
nevermind,
2030
and
I
think
that
unless
we
make
some
investments,
if
we
want
to
stay
up
to
power
and
be
competitive
on
a
global
scale
for
want
to
be
competitive
on
a
national
scale,
we,
but
we
better
start
investing
in
our
infrastructure
and
I,
think
that
what
we've
done
in
the
city
is
through.
This
has
come
up
with
a
plan
in
go
Boston,
2030,
a
plan
on
not
just
transportation,
but
how
do
we
deliver
services
in?
H
And
some
of
that
is
going
to
take
infrastructure
money?
Someone
that's
going
to
take
changes
in
the
way
we
travel
and
I.
Think
that
you
know
this,
whether
or
not
we
do
the
plan
for
infrastructure
that
has
to
happen
and
I'm,
hoping
that
this
is.
This
is
something
that
might
accelerate
that
understanding
that
we
have
to
start
to
take
this
seriously
in
the
city
of
Boston.
H
As
you
all
know,
we've
had
to
close
two
bridges
in
three
years
and
there's
a
couple
all
the
bridges
that
are
in
tough
shape
right
now
that
we
have
investments
going
on
I
mean
we're
talking
decades
of
neglect
that
we
didn't
upgrade
these
facilities.
We
can't
have
bridges
being
closed
in
the
city
of
Boston,
so
it's
something
that
that
you
know
this
plan
takes
it
very
seriously.
As
far
as
transportation
forward
related.
G
To
that,
how
is
the
team
planning
to
finalize
different
areas?
Investments?
Historically
speaking,
you
might
see
a
center
out
policy
where
downtown
improvements
having
first
but
then
you're
talking
about
someone's
way
on
the
southern
end
of
the
fair
amount
line
they
have
unlimited
access
to
the
city
in
the
first
place,
so
everything
about
pilot
programs,
Rebecca
mention
how
will
the
determination
being
made
on
where
those
are
again.
H
I
think
that
that
the
plant,
the
plan
is
going
to
lay
out
what
a
vision
would
be
for
the
city,
but
I.
Think
one
of
the
one
of
the
moves
we
made
about
a
month
ago
was
the
Boston
Planning
and
Development
Agency.
You
know
in
1950,
when
the
master
plan
came
out,
the
BR
a
we
came
to
fruition
right
after
that
and
was
about
development
that
plan
in
1950.
H
The
50s
was
really
about
design
and
planning
and
up
not
planning,
design
and
construction
in
growth
of
a
city
we're
talking
about
planning
and
development
of
a
city.
So
if
every
every
building
that
might
be
might
be
suggested
in
the
city
of
Boston,
we
have
to
come
up
with
a
planning
mechanism
for
around
that.
H
So
it's
about
tying
all
these
different
pieces
in
together,
so
I
think
that
the
the
Boston
Planning
development
agency
is
doing
some
of
that
now
transportation
departments
doing
some
that
now
our
public
works
departments
doing
some
of
that
now
so
we're
doing
that,
which
is
what
this
imagine
Boston
2030
plan
shows,
is
a
long
term.
You
know
I
guess
I'll
say
wish
list
a
long-term
hope
for
where
we
are
as
a
city.
C
H
Again
in
the
outside
of
you
mean
the
hot,
the
heart
of
the
city
and
going
to
the
name
ones.
You
know
again,
I
think
that
that's
happening
today
and
you're
going
to
see
in
this
plan
is
how
do
we
grow
a
community?
But
how
do
we
preserve
a
community
at
the
same
time?
How
do
we
preserve
his
character
and
how
do
we
allow
not
to
have
so
much
gentrification
and
displacement
of
folks
I?
Think
that
in
John
can
talk
about
this
as
well.
H
We're
seeing
we're
seeing
a
lot
of
interest
in
neighborhoods,
where
they
weren't
before
one
even
one
example:
I
grew
up
in
st.
margarets
parish,
Nexus
savin
hill
on
Dutch,
Avenue,
dot
block,
it
was
a
cinderblock
building.
Now
we
have
a
hundred
and
sixty
million
dollar
development
proposed
today
that,
if
you
told
me
five
years
ago,
there's
160
million
dollar
development
proposals
for
that
part
of
dirt.
Ave
I'd
say
no
way
because
it'd
be
too
complicated
to
pull
together
we're
starting
to
see
that
happening
in
the
deli
area.
H
We
have
two
or
three
or
four
different
proposals.
Looking
to
move
forward.
Another
area
we
have
a
I'm
not
going
to
get
to
mention
to
it,
but
we
have
some
proposals
in
the
Dudley
area.
In
mattapan
we
have
proposal
amount
of
pain
area,
a
licensing
board.
The
other
day
gave
a
couple
liquor,
let
a
few
liquor
licenses
to
roxbury
Dorset
metope
and
more
than
that,
it
was
like
the
first
time
in
a
while.
H
We
actually
started
to
see
that
much
excitement
and
involvement
in
the
neighborhood
so
we're
starting
to
see
that
happen
now
and
what
this
plan
really
is
about.
How
do
we
make
sure
we
preserve
those
communities
because
the
character
of
mana
peon,
the
character
of
Roxbury,
the
character
of
George,
the
character
of
high
POC?
Those
that's?
What
makes
our
city
great
it
has.
It
has
its
own
little
identity,
so
we
want
to
see,
see
it
grow,
but
we
also
want
to
be
able
to
keep
the
try
and
keep
that
identity.
H
We
are
going
to
put
a
master
plan
for
2030
and
talk
about
what
kind
of
school
system
we
want
in
20-30.
In
my
opinion,
we're
cutting
our
kids
very
short
right
now
we
are
we.
The
master
plan
for
the
schools
are
happening
right
now,
we're
working
on
on
reinventing
our
high
schools,
we're
working
on
making
investments
in
our
schools
today.
This
is
a
master
plan
for
the
future
of
the
city.
We
purposely
did
we
didn't
put
out
our
our
school,
though
our
schools
conversation
doesn't
happen.
This
our
school
conversation
is
happening
right
now.
H
This
is
what
we
want
to
see
this.
The
city
look
like
in
20
30
years
from
now.
The
schools
need
to
be
good
today
and
we're
working
on
them
right
now
and
they're,
not
part
of
the
master
planning
process
has
its
own
separate
piece
moving
forward.
We
have
massive
planning
going
on
the
schools,
but
it's
it's
a
separate
document.
G
H
Going
to
be
one
of
the
one
of
the
interesting
things
that
comes
out
of
the
draft
going
out
in
the
community
to
see
what
the
community
says,
I
mean
I
think
there
are
certain
neighborhoods
that
say
they
want
mixed-use
or
other
neighborhoods
that
might
want
more
more
residential
housing
and
less
mixed-use.
I.
Think
that
that's
something
that
will
will
be
flushed
out
over
the
course
of
the
next,
the
cynics
several
weeks
and
months
to
see
what
people
feel
about
the
plan.
H
I
think
it
again,
it'll
be
very
different
in
different
neighborhoods
I
mean,
if
you
go
to
now,
you
use
Roxbury
in
West
Roxbury.
You
know
their
pots
of
Roxbury
in
West
Roxbury
that
people
want
to
keep
residential
and
quiet
and
just
the
way
it
is,
and
there
are
parts
of
West
Roxbury
and
rocks
great
people,
wouldn't
mind,
mix,
use
and
I.
Think
it's
going
to
be
really
by
neighborhood.
How
that's
going
to
work.
F
H
Think
this
is
going
to
be
a
roadmap
for
the
T
to
see
that
you
know,
we
really
need
a
strong
system.
I
know
the
t
is
to
you
know,
run
by
the
state,
obviously,
and
by
the
MBTA
in
the
board
and
master
board
and
they're
doing
their
thing.
But
this
is
a
blueprint
that
we're
going
to
be
able
to
show
the
T
saying
that,
in
order
for
the
City
of
Boston
to
live
up
to
what
the
potential
could
be
here,
we
need
a
strong,
reliable
new
public
transportation
system
and
I.
H
H
As
far
as
revenue,
tax
revenue
comes
from
the
city
of
Boston
so
and
that's
only
going
to
grow
with
the
amount
of
companies
that
have
moved
into
our
city
in
the
last
in
the
last
year
and
a
half
two
years
and
the
number
of
companies
I've
reached
out
to
us
coming
to
our
city
that
that
income
tax
is
going
to
only
grow
in
the
city.
So
it's
going
to
be
vitally
important
for
the
T
to
look
at
this
plan
and
come
up
with
a
long-term
plan
that
that
works
in
parallel
with
us
are.
H
H
Let
me
off
the
hook
easy.
Thank
you
very
much.
Listen
I
I
probably
have
to
run
to
another
room,
but
I
truly
want
to
thank
the
team
here
and,
as
I
said
earlier,
it's
very
beginning
in
particularly
the
12,000
people
who
who
took
part
in
some
type
of
Charette
forum
conversation
suggestion
card
whatever
it
was.
They
did
I
want
to
thank
them
for
that,
because
this
truly
is
a
a
great
piece
of
work
and
it's
not
a
perfect
piece
of
work.
H
D
D
We
also
need
to
think
and
I
think,
especially
in
light
of
question
too,
either
way
that
it
went.
What
is
a
sustainable
urban
education
going
to
look
like
in
Boston?
What
is
high-quality
urban
education
going
to
look
like
in
Boston?
It's
a
strength
that
there
are
many
options
for
schools
in
Boston
will
be
a
place
that
features
many
types
of
schools:
district
charter,
parochial,
independent.
D
The
question
is:
how
will
that
be
financially
sustainable
for
the
city,
and
how
can
we
make
sure
that
there
is
quality
behind
every
door
that
you
walk
through,
and
a
lot
of
the
work
that
will
be
doing
in
the
coming
years
is
figuring
out
how
we
collaborate
on
solving
some
very
pernicious
problems
in
education,
whether
it's
related
to
supporting
English
language
learning,
students,
special
education,
students
work.
We
need
to
do
across
the
board
on
school
discipline,
so
we
really
want
to
think
across
segments
of
the
education
sector
about
how
we
do
that.
D
The
third
thing
to
think
about
is
education
should
be
seamless.
When
you
enter
a
door
in
pre-k
or
in
family
care,
you
should
be
able
to
see
clear
through
to
higher
education
and
career
attachment,
so
that
means
lowering
cost
barriers
on
the
back
end.
So
the
mayor's
free
tuition
program,
which
trend
win
spearheaded
for
us
thinking
about
student,
supports
as
well,
because
it's
not
just
the
cost
is
making
sure
that
wherever
you
are
in
your
life,
you
can
balance
being
a
parent
and
being
in
school.
You
can
have
affordable
housing
and
be
in
school.
D
Lastly,
we
want
to
make
sure
that
whole
community
learning
takes
place
in
boston.
So
beyond
our
schools,
there
are
a
myriad
of
learning
opportunities.
You
think
about
our
cultural
institutions.
Boston
probably
has
the
highest
quality
youth
serving
nonprofit
sector
in
America
and
I
would
dare
any
other
city
to
say
otherwise,
we're
talking
about
our
higher
ed
institutions
as
well.
