Establishing connections for the Alewife District to the wider Cambridge Community

An Opportunity

The Alewife District in Cambridge will bring together an urban form with access to abundant natural spaces that encourage gathering, recreation, and a sense of community. This location provides a generational opportunity to create a mixed-use neighborhood that features an array of housing types, complementary retail amenities, a community-inspired public realm, alongside next-generation commercial spaces. An integrated District brings together the communities of Alewife, greater Cambridge, and Boston with improved infrastructure and access to multi-modal transportation options.
