Fifteen years later, a sports and entertainment district will rise from the parking lots around Boston's Fenway Park.
"A massive, 1.1-million-square-foot development adjacent to Fenway Park in Boston is finally set to rise, following 15 years of delays, setbacks, and logistical issues," reports Jonathan Hilburg.
The Fenway Center development will add "two residential buildings with 312 units, 37,000 square feet of ground floor retail and 200 underground parking spots to what is currently a parking lot," adds Hilburg.
