Announcing our 2026 Spectacle on Boston Harbor Honorees: Pembroke and The East Boston Community!

We’re recognizing Pembroke for its leadership in reimagining Commonwealth Pier as a resilient, vibrant, mixed-use waterfront destination that fosters connection and community. We’re honoring the East Boston community for over a decade of leadership in creating an inclusive, accessible, and resilient waterfront through community-driven collaboration and programming—including more than ten years of Eastie Week.

Together, these honorees reflect what’s possible when innovation and community leadership come together to shape a more inclusive, resilient Boston Harbor.

Join us on the harbor as we celebrate 10 years of progress and look ahead to what’s next: https://ow.ly/4xLF50YULM0
