So the planning process is kicking off for this parcel (again), perhaps we can rename this thread back to Parcel 3 or something. The BPDA got a $250,000 grant approved this week to do environmental remediation, which they think will make the site more attractive to developers and give them some more leverage on what gets built.

Perhaps merge in this old thread: https://archboston.com/community/threads/parcel-p-3.1527/
Here's the press release: https://mailchi.mp/boston/bpda-rece...ental-remediation-at-roxburys-p3?e=989e618ff4
First step should be the remediation of the ignorant name Nubian Sq. [having nothing at all to do with anything Boston] to something Boston-centric like Attucks's Square -- and then there should be an international competition for an appropriate memorial to Christopher Attucks, a true Martyr / Hero of the American Revolution
