Millers River Littoral Way
#SilentSunday #Boston #CharlestownMA
We are looking forward along a yellow-painted concrete walk beneath a highway overpass, following the path of the highway. Lamp posts are placed at regular intervals along the yellow chainlink fence running along the walk's outer edge. Each post has an alternating pattern of black and another color going up the post, a swoopy, curved arm in that color reaching out over the walk, with a lanter-style lamp with black lampshade dangling from it. The nearest lampost has pale yellow as its alternating color, the nest, light blue, the next, pale green, the next, back to pale yellow as the path recedes in the distance and curves slightly taken the lamp posts out of sight.

At center of lower half of pic, covering the side of a building, is a black and white mural of a huge face looking directly at us with groupings of lines in arrow and Y-shapes strewn about. A connected, taller red brick column of the building runs up the left side of pic. Atop that section of the building with the mural is a tall smokestack with lettering spelling out "HOODS MILK" from top to bottom. Behind it is a concrete and glass building.

Mission Accomplished: I played the Charlestown Bells!

#CharlestownMA #Boston #CharlesRiver #ZakimBridge #PublicArt #SoundSculpture
On a concrete walk with an iron railing heading across the river. The railing has metal tubes of varying lengths hung horizontally on the outside of the railing, with shiny chrome handles on the inside of the railing, connected to the tubes. A plaque on the railing reads "Paul Matisse, The Charlestown Bells, 2000." Looking out over the water, just yards away is the Zakim bridge also crossing the water in parallel. We see one of its tall white stanchions with white cables extending down to the bridge from both sides. Past the bridge is the low, wide TD Garden building, and beyond that, a few glass-enclosed skyscrapers punctuate the skyline. A brilliant sun beams in the clear blue sky.

On a concrete sidewalk, a bronze figure of a stack of four filled burlap sacks. The top sack is open on one end with a bronze pile of potatoes captured in mid-spill out. On the sidewalk, we see part of a bronze plaque which reads, a single word to a line at staggered random alignments and in various size fonts: "POTATO POTATO POTATOES POTATO POTATO POTATOES POTATO POTATO POTATO POTATOES POTATO POTATO POTATO"

Honored to speak at the kickoff to the Battle of Bunker Hill Commemoration this weekend. The Bunker Hill Associates hosted the ceremonial Bunker Hill flag raising, which serves as a tribute to Charlestown’s founding veterans.

Answering the question "Can windows be aggressive?" #CharlestownMA

#FensterFreitag #WindowFriday
From the sidewalk we look at the first floor of the corner of a brick building. Broad, floor-to-ceiling rectangular windows framed in black are on each side, meeting at the corner with a black pillar from sidewalk to top of window frame. Black metal grating with vertical spikes of varying heights topped in pointy fleur-de-lis span both windows. On the inside, white shutters across each window are closed.

Front of a house-like building with charcoal gray siding. At center of the first floor is a door with bright red frame, flanked by bright red framed windows on either side, each with a beer company logo at center and festooned with hanging plants. The second floor has two bay windows, each over the red framed window below.

A short, narrow alley between two houses, shingled at left and brick at right. Across the back of the alley is a doorway to a passage that connects the buildings, with a window on the floor above and a shorter window under the angled rooftop.

Big news for #CharlestownMA! This week we broke ground on a $25M renovation of Ryan Playground.

This project will transform the park into a climate-resilient, state-of-the-art space for recreation and community gathering. Here's what’s coming! 🧵(1/7)

Looking up at a 2-story bric building. On either side of the arched doorway are 3 tall windows with blond brick keystone 'crowns' atop. On the second floor at center above the doorway is a group of 3 windows: a short rectangular window on either side of a taller arched window, all 3 framed in blond brick. Three rectangular windows topped with blond brick keystone 'crowns' are on either side, above the matching first-floor windows, one adjoined at each side, all outlined with blond brick. Immediately below the arched window, a plate with "BF TWEED SCHOOL" engraved is set into the brick. Neside the door below. a white-on-black sign says "Maps Studios 24" below a stylized "M" logo.
