After 20+ years of community care, advocacy and strategy, we have reached a major milestone in demonstrating the importance of the Peace Garden to the City, and it is being transferred from Clear Channel Outdoor LLC to the City of Boston.

Thank you to @mayorwu, @bostonparksdept, and especially @revmariamawh for your support earlier in in the process for making this happen for the betterment of Egleston Square 🙏💗🌱🙌🏽
