Fenway Park is a baseball park located in Boston, Massachusetts, at 4 Yawkey Way near Kenmore Square. Since 1912, it has been the location for the Boston Red Sox, the city's Major League Baseball (MLB) franchise. It is the oldest ballpark in Major League Baseball.Because of its age and constrained location in Boston's dense Fenway–Kenmore neighborhood, the park has been renovated or expanded many times, resulting in quirky heterogeneous features including "The Triangle" (below), "Pesky's Pole", and the Green Monster in left field. It is the fourth smallest among MLB ballparks by seating capacity, second smallest by total capacity, and one of eight that cannot accommodate at least 40,000 spectators.Fenway has hosted the World Series ten times, with the Red Sox winning five of them, and the Braves (then of Boston) winning one. The first, in the park's inaugural season, was the 1912 World Series and the most recent was the 2013 World Series. Besides baseball games it has been the site of many other sporting and cultural events including professional football games for the Boston Redskins, Boston Yanks, and the Boston Patriots; concerts; soccer and hockey games; and political and religious campaigns.
Situated in the heart of Boston’s Fenway neighborhood and a link in Olmsted’s Emerald Necklace, the Fenway Victory Gardens span seven acres tended by a community of almost 500 gardeners from every neighborhood in Boston, with a diversity of cultures, ages, abilities and experience. During WWII, the City of Boston established 49 areas (including the Boston Common and the Public Garden!) as ‘victory gardens’ for citizens to grow vegetables and herbs. As the oldest and largest continuously operating WWII Victory Garden in the U.S., the Fenway Victory Gardens are home not only to vegetable gardens, but to floral gardens, a community herb garden, an accessible garden, an apiary, a nursery, and a teaching garden. A meadow at the gardens’ center is ideal for picnics, yoga, bocce, and plenty more. Come and spend an afternoon exploring our special part of the Boston parks system!
It all started in 2007 with a vital question: "Why isn't there a place for quick, affordable catwalk-quality blow outs?" We have been coifing ever since. Just wash, blow, go.
