  • Monday, June 21, 6:30 pm – Ringgold Park Community Meeting

    Join the City of Boston Parks and Recreation Department and the Friends of Ringgold Park on Monday, June 21, at 6:30 pm in third floor Child Care Room of the Blackstone Community Center, 50 West Brookline Street,  to discuss Ringgold Park’s Center Circle Fountain project.  See the site plans, express your views, and take an active part in the process.  See how different construction materials affect the budget.  Your input is wanted. The highly trafficked Ringgold Park, which rests on Ringgold Street between Shawmut Avenue and Tremont Street, has recently become a matter of discussion as initial building plans have been put into place to construct a fountain in its barren, grassy center. Complicating matters, however, is the need to raise at least $85,000 to fully fund construction costs. An interesting report on the project to date may be found at www.mysouthend.com.
