Boston Seaport
Seaport is a 21st century neighborhood designed for the way people live today. It’s fast becoming the most sought-after spot for both Fortune 500s and start-ups to set up shop, one of the top residential areas in the city, and a go-to destination for global travelers.
As more people make Seaport the place they work, live and visit, the district will continue to evolve to serve this vibrant community. What’s up next? More spots to relax and enjoy the outdoors, including Harbor Way, a pedestrian promenade stretching from Summer Street to the water’s edge. Another new area, Harbor Square Park, will bring the atmosphere of a European piazza to the neighborhood, complete with a vibrant and varied lineup of shops and restaurants surrounding a scenic common space.
Seaport will continue to grow into a thriving, sustainable neighborhood; a new nucleus of Boston. Filled with an ever-expanding collection of art, cultural events, inspiring architecture, inviting outdoor areas and state-of-the-art spaces for tech companies, biotech firms and innovative new ventures, the future of this modern neighborhood looks brighter than ever.
No matter what exciting developments lie ahead, creating a vital, inclusive community in Seaport remains a top priority. In support of this mission, WS Development established the Seaport Community Grant Program in 2019. The Seaport Community Grant Program is open to all Boston-based not-for-profit organizations, with an emphasis on applicants who focus on environmental or transportation advocacy, social and human services, and the performing and visual arts.
