Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An illustrated account of the creation of the Charles River Basin, focusing on the precarious balance between transportation planning and the stewardship of the public realm. The Charles River Basin, extending nine miles upstream from the harbor, has been called Boston's "Central Park." Yet few realize that this apparently natural landscape is a totally fabricated public space. Two hundred years ago the Charles was a tidal river, edged by hundreds of acres of salt marshes and mudflats. Inventing the Charles River describes how, before the creation of the basin could begin, the river first had to be imagined as a single public space. The new esplanades along the river changed the way Bostonians perceived their city; and the basin, with its expansive views of Boston and Cambridge, became an iconic image of the metropolis. The book focuses on the precarious balance between transportation planning and stewardship of the public realm. Long before the esplanades were realized, great swaths of the river were given over to industrial enterprises and transportation—millponds, bridges, landfills, and a complex network of road and railway bridges. In 1929, Boston's first major highway controversy erupted when a four-lane road was proposed as part of a new esplanade. At twenty-year intervals, three riverfront road disputes followed, successively more complex and disputatious, culminating in the lawsuits over "Scheme Z," the Big Dig's plan for eighteen lanes of highway ramps and bridges over the river. More than four hundred photographs, maps, and drawings illustrate past and future visions for the Charles and document the river's place in Boston's history.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of the Committee on Charles River Dam: Appointed Under Resolves of 1901, Chapter 105; To Consider the Advisability and Feasibility of Building a Dam Across the Charles River at or Near Craigie Bridge A dam with surface and drawbridge at grade' 22, Boston base, will result in frequent interruption of street traffic over the dam, owing to the necessity of opening the draw for all vessels requiring more than 12 feet head room. On this account, with a view to less frequent obstruction of the highway, the chief engineer of the committee recommends a high dam, with a surface and drawbridge at grade Boston base, which would allow the passage of tugs and mastless vessels without opening the draw. Studies for such a dam, both of solid masonry and with a steel viaduct, have been prepared, though it is probable that the former is pref crable, as the cost of maintenance of a steel structure would offset the decreased expense of construction. These later studies have resulted in some modification of the figures given on pages 12, 31 and 32 of the report of this committee.
