Video Tour of the Gardens on the Greenway E-mail

Take a video tour with me as we preview the work on the Gardens on the Greenway. I'll give you an introduction to the project and show you what we have planned for each parcel.

The video was taken on Monday, April 21 and will serve as a ‘before’ look at the MHS Gardens on the Greenway. The date is significant because the flags were set marking the irrigation system layout for the project. Despite months of planning and growing out at Elm Bank, April 21 was the first date of any physical activity on the site itself by MHS. Previous work done at the site was commissioned last year by the Turnpike Authority.

As you will hear in the video, the irrigation activity was done while the Red Sox were playing and the Boston Marathon was being run. Hopefully, the Greenway will take its place along side these and other entities that help define the unique personality that is Boston.

A disclaimer – the video was shot by a rank amateur (me!). I also want to be clear that the thumbprint you see on parcel 19 is not a part of the Halvorson Design.

The videos discuss the overall project followed by a closer look at each parcel (19, 21 and 22.)
