HEALEY + MYSTIC MASTER PLAN

HEALEY + MYSTIC mASTER pLAN
SOMERVILLE, MA
2016

For decades, residents of the Mystic Neighborhood have suffered from physical and social divisions that have isolated them from the rest of the City. The Healey+Mystic designs an accessible route and major new recreation resources along a 3-acre bluff that separates the Healey schoolyard from the Mystic Neighborhood, with as much as 35 feet of grade change. These shared resources will act as social connectors, bringing disparate communities together around activities, like soccer, that flourish in spite of language and economic barriers.
