Anticipated Hurdles:
We will pursue omnibus state legislation to coordinate
permitting at the local and state levels. This legislation will
carefully consider land use, zoning, transportation, historic
preservation, cultural celebration, environmental protection
and economic benefits to ensure the successful implementation
and integration of Games infrastructure. No specific permitting
hurdles are anticipated.

Precinct Plan

Accessibility Options:
The Boston Common is located in the heart of the city. Boston
Common connects Beacon Hill and Government Center, the
Public Gardens, Back Bay, Chinatown, the Theater District and the
Financial District. Olympic athletes and spectators visiting the
Boston Common will be perfectly positioned to enjoy the diverse
offerings of each of these neighborhoods. From the Boston
Common, athletes and spectators will be able to see the golden
dome of the Massachusetts State House, the historic houses
of Beacon Hill, the Swan Boats of the Public Garden and the
skyscrapers of the Back Bay and Downtown. The Starting Line for
the Marathon will be located adjacent to the Boston Common.
This venue will be served by the Olympic Route Network via I-90
to Stuart Street and Charles Street. The site is also exceptionally
accessible via public transportation. It is within walking distance
of the Red, Green and Orange Lines.
