The Massachusetts Convention Center Authority has filed its Final Project Impact Report (FPIR) with the Boston Redevelopment Authority. The FPIR, a document now in public comment period, details the design and impact of the facility on the neighborhood and the environment. [More about this filing and how you can respond follows below.]
SAND delegates have been participating in the design process, attending meetings and commenting along with other South Boston community groups in the Neighborhood Design Advisory Committee (NDAC). The NDAC has worked together, considering a number of impact issues including those of SAND (click here to read one of these).
