City Hall Plaza is undergoing a dramatic transformation that will replace this 50-year-old public space to be an innovative, healthy, and efficient civic hub to better serve current and future generations of Bostonians and visitors, alike.

This seven-acre plaza is one of the City’s largest civic spaces, routinely hosting events ranging from sports celebrations and political rallies to seasonal cultural festivals. Overt time, much has changed in terms of the City’s urban context, standards of public safety and security and municipal operations since was originally designed in the 1960s.
