Rose Kennedy Greenway

The Greenway is one of the most celebrated results of the now-infamous Big Dig. Formed when I-93 was sunk underground, this verdant, mile-long ribbon of grassy parks and outdoor resting places invites the weary traveler (or office warrior) to stop and take a moment to appreciate the city’s fleeting sunshine. A variety of eating and drinking spots — some seasonal, some transient — keep visitors satiated. There are also periodic festivals, events, and parades located on or near the park.
