The Rose Kennedy Greenway

  The Rose Kennedy Greenway stretches for approximately 1.5 miles through Boston's vibrant Downtown area, connecting the North End and the Wharf District. Opened in 2008, this urban park was created in the aftermath of the Big Dig project, which rerouted the city's highway system underground. Its main feature is a beautifully landscaped series of gardens, pathways, and public art installations that serve as a green oasis in the bustling city. Throughout the summer months, the Greenway is particularly lively, hosting markets, food trucks, and outdoor events. Visitors can enjoy a leisurely stroll, grab a bite to eat, or relax among the unique flora, including over 20,000 native plants and trees.
