Why we‘re doing it

Boston Street is a blighted street we are seeking to transform into an inspirational corridor for children on their way through local rr tunnel to their elementary school. The rr gave our community it's name at our birth in 1910-the Belt Line. Building on this existing foundation theme helps provide our neighborhood with identity.
