The
award winning pedestrian walk
at Constitution Beach |
Constitution Beach is a
major regional Boston Harbor beach, providing a diverse mix of
activities and facilities for the East Boston community and the
region's residents. Renovations completed last year include a new
playground, an award winning pedestrian overpass, parking, handball
courts, major landscaping additions, beach resanding (including
8,000 tons of new sand), shade shelters, and foot showers.
Construction of a new bathhouse will be completed for the summer of
2003. A mobile concession stand is open when lifeguards are on duty.
Owned and operated by the Department of Conservation and Recreation.
Access: Two hundred
and eighty parking spaces are available which fill up quickly on any
sunny summer day. The beach is accessible by taking the MBTA Blue
Line to Orient Heights station or by MBTA bus #120 which stops at
the Bennington Street entrance of Constitution Beach.
