    The Esplanade Association recently launched our Esplanade-1-1 (E-1-1) Non-Emergency Feedback System to give Esplanade visitors an easy and accessible way to provide us with any feedback they have regarding the Esplanade. If you have any suggestions, comments, or concerns about the Esplanade, please fill out our E-1-1 Form today! The Esplanade Association strives to make the park safe, happy, and welcoming for all. We have a close relationship with many partners who operate in the park, including the Massachusetts Department of Conservation and Recreation, Community Boating Inc., Night Shift Brewing, and more. If you see anything that could help us make the park better, please use the form here and we will route your comment to the appropriate entity.
