The Side Yard

The Side Yard

As the scale and frequency of Zone3 outdoor programs and events increased through 2016 and 2017, Graffito and Harvard sought a better designed space to play host for such. The team identified a vacant lot along Western Ave for redevelopment and Graffito oversaw all permitting, design, construction and reporting on behalf of the University. The “side yard” opened in 2018 and became an instant success, becoming home to Aeronaut Allston, offering several new canvasses for Walls on Western, and hosting dynamic local events produced by the likes of Together Festival and Allston Village Main Streets.
