About this Event

Join Mike Manning of the Friends of the Boston Harborwalk (FBHW) for a guided walking tour of Boston's newest neighborhood - the South Boston Seaport/Waterfront. The tour will begin at Martin's Park at the base of the Evelyn Moakley bridge. We'll then cross Seaport Boulevard and wind our way through the Seaport beginning at the Barking Crab restaurant and ending at the Boston Fish Pier (circa 1914) at Northern Avenue near D Street.

I'll discuss the history of this neighborhood of Boston and how it has more recently evolved over the last 25 years. I'll also mention building density, climate change and sea-level rise, resiliency, the positives and negatives of the new development, and all that was lost during the recent building boom (which continues to today).

The tour will end at the Fish Pier sometime between 12:00 PM and 12:30 PM

The Friends of the Boston Harborwalk is a volunteer group affiliated with Boston Harbor Now. The group meets monthly to promote awareness, public enjoyment and local stewardship of Boston’s 43-mile Harborwalk. For more information on joining the group, please visit or contact Mike Manning, chair, at .
