Boston waterfront restoration turns Charles River basin esplanade into city pride
The Charles River basin near Beacon Street was once a sewage rank area and derided as an abomination. Through Henry Bowditch sewer reforms and Frederick Ames efforts, a Cambridge Back Bay level was pursued. A $3,000,000 bridge and a 100 foot Beacon Street reservation completed the esplanade. The new plan removed sewage flows, turning the esplanade into a main trunk sewered promenade.
