Jamaica Plain Centre/South Main Streets (CSMS) has announced that Kevin Johnson will be its new executive director.
West Roxbury Main Streets will host Celebrate Centre on Oct. 22 from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Celebrate Centre will herald the return of the Sidewalk Sale.
Executive director of West Roxbury Main Streets, Danielle Joseph discussed one of the nonprofit organization’s main goals: To continue offering its support to residents and businesses in the district.
Several Jamaica Plain volunteers and businesses were chosen as business and volunteer of the year at the 20th annual Boston Main Streets awards ceremony last month.
When he learned that the community space on Brighton Avenue run by POP Allston and managed by Allston Village Main Streets was interested in adding performances, Trip Venturella jumped at the chance.
Construction of new storefront and business spaces in Jamaica Plain is now underway.
A Medal of Honor monument, new street signage, bike-share stations, and improvements to parks are just some of the enhancements on the way for Allston-Brighton residents, thanks to Boston College.
Boston College and the city of Boston recently gave neighborhood grants totaling almost $450,000 to Allston-Brighton, providing funding for future enhancement projects.
The initiative’s goal is to measure a city’s friendliness to elders along several criteria, including transportation, housing, social participation, civic participation, and communication.
Allston’s new community space has an open skatepark, a yoga studio, a vintage market, and much more.
Promoting culture, community and creativity, Do617 and Allston Village Main Streets hosted an outdoor public festival Monday to celebrate Allston Christmas.
