Peddocks Island: Rich History, Vital Future
Peddocks Island, a series of drowned drumlins, is part of the Boston Harbor Islands National and State Park.
It’s currently the largest of the 34 Boston Harbor Islands that is open to the public. Home to historic Fort Andrews, walking tours, geological features, and archaeological sites, the island is in the midst of an exciting redevelopment planning process led by Boston Harbor Now with the National Park Service and the Department of Conservation and Recreation.
Cheri Ruane of Weston & Sampson Design Studio, lead consultant for the island’s development plan, and Alice Brown of Boston Harbor Now, will discuss fascinating highlights of the island’s past, present, and future.
Join us from 6:00pm-6:30pm for a celebration of Friends of the Boston Harbor Islands’ 40th anniversary, with light refreshments and interactive exhibits. The program will be from 6:30pm-7:30pm.
This program is made possible with funding from the Lowell Institute.
