Planning @BostonHarborNow. Working to make our waterfront, harbor & islands great + expand equitable access. Opinions are my own.

Did you know the Lovejoy-Seaport ferry is lowering the ticket price (to $5 including fee) and opening more seats to the public (at least 15 per trip) in April? Get the scoop on this and more news on ferries from @jonchesto: https://t.co/p8saFnrsxS

Public spaces, whether interior or exterior, must look public. "Too often the good design intentions are negated by purposely off-putting management." @JohnKingSFChron on some well-intentioned failures in SF. https://t.co/brWCaKU7d2

Big plans, broken promises. A cautionary tale from @blairkamin
"Seen from afar [the district] projects a sense of order...But something’s wrong when you walk the streets. They are a kind of public space, but they do a poor job of accommodating the public."

Thanks to the hard work of the volunteers at the Friends of the Boston Harborwalk, there are 3 great new interpretive signs in Eastie. Visit Boston East condos on Border St to learn more about the history of local industries + ship building and repair.

"It's really critical for community building, and for our democracy, that we stop "othering." Instead we all need to start engaging more in public life and spending time with a greater diversity of people in public spaces." @mslynnross https://t.co/PsbepwECsc
