Greenspace Committee

The West End Civic Association’s Greenspace Committee advocates for the parks, play areas, and public spaces of the West End.

The Green Corridor

In 2022, the Greenspace Committee took on the project of imagining, planning, and implementing a West End Green Corridor extending from the Charles River to West End Park, continuing along Lomasney Way and Merrimac, and concluding with a connection to Boston’s Greenway.

Conceptualizing the Green Corridor


In partnership with UMass Amherst, Greenspace worked with students to conceptualize the potential for a future West End Green Corridor. This process has produced a number of plans, which can be found below.

WECA continues to seek input from the community on these proposals.
