Boston Preservation Alliance Honors The Speedway

We are thrilled to share that the Boston Preservation Alliance has named the Charles River Speedway as one of six recipients of its 34th annual Preservation Achievement Awards!

This awards program recognizes outstanding achievements in historic preservation and compatible new construction in Boston. Celebrated for their positive impact on the city’s built environment, winning projects are looked upon as models for future preservation work.

In partnership with AHF Boston, Bruner/Cott transformed a former mile-long harness and bicycle racetrack complex, built in 1899, into an exciting mixed-use destination for the community. You can read more about the Speedway project here.

“The Speedway is proof that any property, no matter how challenging, can be brought back to life with the right team. AHF went above and beyond to collaborate with the neighborhood, find partners and financial resources, and deliver a restored, vibrant resource to the community,”   – Alison Frazee, Executive Director.

The Boston Preservation Awards celebration will be held at The Speedway’s Garage B. For more information about the award winners and the event on October 20, 2022 – please visit bostonpreservation.org.
