Work
is underway to upgrade Harry Ellis Dickson Park, spearheaded by the
Fenway Civic Association as part of its neighborhood beautification
mission. The restoration of this passive park, located at the
corner of Westland Avenue and Edgerly Road, will feature the
planting of 33 rose shrubs and assorted annuals, and will include a 5
year plan for ongoing maintenance. The project owes its momentum
to the generosity of several neighborhood organizations and
businesses, key among them: The Fenway Alliance, Boyd Smith,
Inc., Symphony United Neighbors, Boston Symphony Orchestra, Whole
Foods Symphony, and Joy Realty. To find out more or to donate to
the restoration, please contact the Fenway Civic Association.
