BPDA Approves New Projects in July
Boston – The City of Boston Planning Department recently recommended approval of five new development projects to the BPDA board, all of which were approved. Located within Franklin Park, the White Stadium project will renovate, rebuild, and reimagine White Stadium for BPS athletics through a community oriented public-private partnership with Boston Unity Soccer Partners. Built in 1945, decades of disinvestment and fire damage have left White Stadium in disrepair, lacking current safety codes and amenities for BPS athletics. Boston Unity will rebuild the West Grandstand, as well as add new amenities on site, and the City of Boston will invest $50 million to rebuild the East Grandstand. Targeting LEED Gold, it will be one of only three net-zero carbon stadiums in the country.

Campus Art Installation Series Begins this Fall
This fall, Montserrat Galleries inaugurates a series of site-responsive commissions for Montserrat’s Hardie Building featuring projects by Montserrat alumni and local artists. The first in the series is an installation for Hardie’s iconic arched front windows by the Boston-based artist, Loretta Park. An interdisciplinary artist, Park incorporates weaving and fiber-art techniques with an array of everyday objects to create colorful and tactile sculptures. Park will build on these conceptual and material foundations to create a cascading sculpture that interplays with light and color. Woven pieces of rope and plastic chains will intentionally disrupt the window’s natural light, creating shadows of varied shades and shapes. At the same time, brightly colored marbles, sea glass, and translucent fabrics will amplify, refract and soften the light, allowing it to illuminate the interior of the building in varying ways.
