The
Rose Fitzgerald Kennedy Greenway is a
linear urban park located in several
downtown neighborhoods of
Boston, Massachusetts. It consists of landscaped gardens, promenades, plazas, fountains, art, and specialty lighting systems that stretch over one mile through
Chinatown,
the North End,
the Financial District, and Harbor communities. Officially opened in October 2008, the 15-acre Greenway sits on land created from demolition of the
John F. Fitzgerald Expressway under the
Big Dig.
