A New Leaf at Federal Plaza

This one has been sitting in our to-publish pile for a while.  It's the newly revamped eastern extension of Federal Plaza.

Officially, its a pedestrianized portion of Quincy Court, and adjoins the pedestrian plaza of the nearby federal complex.  Not that long ago it was a shabby, scary alley.  Today it's a welcoming little courtyard with plexiglass palm trees and places to sit.
Another part of the de-scarification of State Street complete.

  1. I noticed these funky leaves this past weekend. I'd like to see misters installed, so people can feel like they are in the tropics.
