Introducing the Imagine Boston 2030 fall Engagement Team!

We’ve created a fun, all-ages Lego activity that will give residents an opportunity to learn about the issues that Imagine Boston is addressing and add their own input to guide the plan moving forward.

Over the past year, we’ve engaged more than 12,000 Bostonians, learning about the issues that matter most to them as they envision their city in 2030. Now, we’re proud and excited to introduce the Fall 2016 Imagine Boston 2030 Engagement Team! We sent a call to action asking community organizations throughout Boston to invite us to their events, and we received an overwhelming number of responses. We’ve created a fun, all-ages Lego activity that will give residents an opportunity to learn about the issues that Imagine Boston is addressing and add their own input to guide the plan moving forward. Participants can offer input on how new housing and commercial uses can be distributed in different areas of the City to improve quality of life and learn about proposed initiatives for making our City more affordable and preparing for climate change as we grow.
