Summary: | A community coalition in Chinatown successfully stopped the Central Artery/Tunnel Project DD Ramp from being built; the off-ramp would have caused increased traffic and air pollution in Chinatown. Mayor Thomas Menino, as well as officials from the Massachusetts Turnpike Authority, the Central Artery/Tunnel Project, and Chinatown community leaders presided over this event. In this image, Mayor Menino is standing in the second row, third from left, wearing a tan suit. In the background, there is a banner that says "Mass. Turnpike, CA/T [Central Artery Tunnel], Chinatown, Boston, Building a Better Future Together."
