Columbia Point: One Peninsula, Many Stories

100 William T Morrissey Blvd, Boston, MA 02125Boston, MA

About This Event

Please join Jan Engelman, Steve Landrigan and Liz Nelson Weaver for a 2-mile walking tour along the shore of Columbia Point—one of the most beautiful stretches of Boston’s Harborwalk. Discover how the area was formed and gain insights into the lives of the Neponset people. Who has had a role in shaping Columbia Point’s history? Why is UMass Boston here? What do you see across the bay or close to shore?

To get there:

Public transportation: A free shuttle runs regularly between the Red Line JFK/UMass stop and the university campus. We’ll meet inside on the ground level of the Campus Center, right where the shuttle stops. If you drive, parking info at https://www.umb.edu/transportation/

The Friends of the Boston Harborwalk is a volunteer group affiliated with Boston Harbor Now. The group meets monthly to promote awareness, public enjoyment and local stewardship of Boston’s 43-mile Harborwalk. For more information on joining the group, please contact Mike Manning, Chair, at mmanning@bostonharbornow.org
