Harambee Park is a park located in
Dorchester and
Mattapan, Boston. Originally known as Franklin Field, it was designed by
Frederick Law Olmsted in order to give Bostonians a place to play sports, as well as prevent them from doing it at nearby
Franklin Park. During its operation, it has hosted
baseball,
cricket, and a speedway. Today, the park operates as Harambee Park, and part of the grounds have been turned into a housing project.
