The Longwood Collective, the chief planner and principal steward of the Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA), today released its Open Space and Resilience Framework — a first-of-its-kind plan to guide climate resiliency and protect and enhance open space in one of Boston’s most vital and densely developed districts. Home to 73,000 workers and generating $30 billion annually for Massachusetts, the LMA is a global hub of healthcare, research, and education. With more than 20 million square feet concentrated into just 213 acres, the district also faces some of the city’s most acute climate risks — from rising heat to more frequent flooding.

The Longwood Collective, the chief planner and principal steward of the Longwood Medical and Academic Area (LMA), today broke ground on a green infrastructure initiative: a bioswale pilot project on Avenue Louis Pasteur. This three-year initiative, supported by the City of Boston’s Edward Ingersoll Browne Fund, will harvest rainwater, promote resilient vegetation, reduce polluted runoff, and replace four aging trees at the end of their lifecycle. The bioswale will serve as both a functional stormwater management system and a living demonstration of how sustainable infrastructure can transform an urban streetscape.
