LOCATION

The SHPC is sponsoring a "Jane's Walk" to honor urban activist and writer, Jane Jacobs. A world-wide event, this year's walk will be a leisurely stroll through the Magoun Square area focusing on its unique history, and the status of various local issues, including why some area houses are eligible for historic designation, upcoming additions to the Community Path, updates on the Maxwell Green development and its timetable, and whether the proposed Lowell Street "T" station design is a good fit for the neighborhood. Several community leaders will lead this walking tour, ending at noon, in time to enjoy various nearby Somerville Open Studios. Meet in front of Hanson Park on Medford St. at 10 am. Rain or shine. For more information about Jane's Walks see the Boston section of www.janeswalkusa.org.
