Summary: | In the 1990s, the New England Medical Center negotiated with the City of Boston to build a parking garage on Parcel C in Chinatown, land which had previously been promised to Chinatown residents for a community center. The Chinese Progressive Association helped form the Coalition to Protect Parcel C, which was instrumental in halting the New England Medical Center's plan. On September 12-13, 1993, Chinatown residents voted on a referendum on whether to accept or reject the New England Medical Center's proposal to build a parking garage on Parcel C. |
