A view of the park in the middle of Commonwealth Avenue showing the green space in the middle of the built environment around it. The presence of sculptures in the alley way emphasize the longitudinal dimension on the park by creating different focal points.
A typical corner around the Commonwealth area showing different level of privacy. The street-most public- is separated from the house by a fence. The fence in itself creates a less public space with a garden. Finally, the house-which is the most private- is stepped back after the street and the garden.
Two different constructions create a sort of gate at the corner of Newbury Street and Boylston Street. An old church and a massive building express the two different types of architecture that the area is experiencing. It creates variety and allows the people walking by to experience the history of the area a bit more.
The Trinity Church rises up in the middle of a park and two very busy streets. It creates a strong balance right in front of the Boston Public Library of Copley across the street.
