What's New in Boston's Seaport?

The Seaport District of South Boston is a constantly changing neighborhood. Join a city planner and architectural enthusiast for a walk through time as well as to discover what is new in 2020 including Martin Richard Park, Fort Point Channel, the Harborwalk, District Hall, Echelon Seaport, and the wave of new residential and hotel development around the Convention Center. We will examine the architectural styles of the new buildings in light of modern architect Mies van der Rohe's aphorism: "Buildings tells us what we are and what we want to be." We will also discuss the historical architecture and infrastructure that gives context to this burgeoning hot spot.
