Please be advised that we have received the following from MassDOT regarding work to occur on Sumner Avenue next week as part of the "X" Reconstruction project.
Have you seen the vibrant new mural that suddenly appeared on Lenox Street at the “X”? As you drive west on Sumner Avenue, your eye is drawn to the bright colors and images on your left. It’s yet another project installed by Common Wealth Murals (CWM) as part of the ongoing Portrait of a Graduate and Strategic Planning program that began five years ago.
Last summer, members of the FPCA Historic Committee began noticing the use of asphalt to patch sidewalks. We decided to walk the historic district to determine the extent of asphalt patching. We concluded that asphalt patching was “used everywhere” and that it was not in keeping with the desire to maintain an aesthetically pleasing and historically accurate neighborhood.
