The West of Washington (WOW) Coalition, supported by the Trust for Public Land, worked to galvanize the community. Thanks to their efforts, we're converting four vacant lots at the corner of Norwell Street and Park Street to become Dorchester’s newest park. The Community Preservation Act and Streets Cabinet provides the funding for this project. The project budget is $1,350,000.
