Blackstone Gateway Park Design

BSC Group worked with the City of Worcester to produce a master plan and design for an urban park with trails and boardwalks to support hiking, biking, and nature education activities. Located on 34 acres of conservation land in the City of Worcester, alongside the Middle River, the park offers public access through a series of entry parks that connect to over 4,000 linear-feet of pathways and boardwalks. Envisioned as an urban wild, a large portion of the park will remain wooded, with boardwalks and pathways throughout the park. Other elements of the park design include public art through the selection of unique furnishings, bicycle racks, and amenities that will highlight the site’s ecological resources.
