On Saturday, May 22, 2021, JP Centre/South Main Streets took a few moments at the Green Street Parklet to recognize last year’s Volunteer and Business of the Year. Volunteer Patti McKenna and On Centre’s owner Phil Celeste received awards for JP Centre/South Main Streets Volunteer of the Year and Business of the Year for 2020.
The weather on Sunday, October 18, 2020, turned out to be just perfect for our mini-concert at our Green Street Parklet. We were so thankful to Daniel Kim of the Boston Symphony Orchestra volunteer his talents and wonderful instrument. These days, the little joys like live music are few and far between, so it was much appreciated.
At last the parklet has arrived! Our parklet technically functions as a public park, so it is free and open to the public for use. It will remain in its location until the cold, at which point the city will pack and store the parklet. In the Spring, the parklet is reinstalled in the same location.
Thank you to all who were able to make it to our Annual Meeting on February 26, 2020, at the Loring Greenough House. We were excited to share the success of 2019 with you, and give a preview of things to come in JP Centre/South.
JP Centre/South Main Streets is looking for feedback and volunteers to bring parklets to Jamaica Plain Centre and South Streets. Please take a minute to complete our survey.
