Twenty-first century redevelopment is transforming this area rapidly.

Scott Bascom will explain plans for the City Hall plaza by Sasaki and Associates.

Organized by the Docomomo US/New England chapter, this tour will be led by two of its board members, Timothy M. Rohan, UMass Amherst, author of The Architecture of Paul Rudolph, and Scott Bascom of Sasaki Associates.
