Construction Information
  Project Profile
Squirrel Brand Open Space
  The Squirrel Brand Park/ Community Garden is located at the corner of Broadway and Boardman Street. The renovation involves the removal of existing soil, replacement with clean topsoil, grading, and the creation of a passive seating area and public community garden. Click here to view plan.

Schedule
Construction started in early May 2004, and will continue until the renovation is completed during summer 2004. The work hours for this operation will be 7 AM to 4 PM.

Work Zone
During construction, the contractor will fence off and occupy the entire garden and lawn area. During the entire construction process, the site will be off limits; anyone entering will be considered trespassing. For safety reasons, it is important to keep clear of the construction area at all times and to make sure children do the same.

“No Parking” Areas
The contractor will also be posting “No Parking” signs 24-hours in advance of all construction. Please avoid parking in work zones during posted work hours.

Project Team
Jane DeMoulas from Public Works will be supervising the City’s contractor, Emanouil Brothers Inc., during this renovation. If you have any questions or concerns during construction, please contact Rebecca Fuentes: (617) 349-6948 or rfuentes@cambridgema.gov. Please also contact Rebecca if you have any special need or disability that requires an accommodation or continuation of special services during this project.

For more information on the City of Cambridge Community Garden Program, please contact Jennifer Wright, Conservation Commissioner: jwright@cambridgema.gov.
