The Rose Kennedy Greenway replaced what was known as the Central Artery which was torn down during the “Big Dig” project and replaced with an underground tunnel below the new 30 acre park.

The Wharf District Park is one of 6 distinct parks that make up the Greenway. It includes the Rings Fountain at Milk Street with its unpredictable water patterns that jet into the air from a flat paved surface, the Mother’s Walk, children of all ages have inscribed pavers with the names of special people who have loved and inspired them, ever changing art installations and farmer’s markets on Saturdays throughout the summer and early fall.
