Walkshop: Exploring Chinatown
Hynes Convention Center, 3rd Floor, Room 312

Join this walking tour with community transportation and climate action leaders, as well as City of Boston Environment Department staff, to discuss the intersection of climate and transportation planning in Chinatown. We'll also explore how economic revitalization efforts related to the COVID-19 pandemic recovery have facilitated place-making and summertime cooling through outdoor dining. Learn about the role that transportation infrastructure plays in shaping urban environments, and how holistic planning approaches that center equitable access can transform the public realm and improve quality of life.
