Joe and Susan Park

Joe and Susan’s accomplishments can be measured by the tireless hours they have dedicated and by the fabric of a city that has been saved and brought back to its historic prominence. From the Immaculate Conception Church in the South End to the city’s historic theater district, evidence of their work is everywhere. They were agents of change for the creation of the Boston Landmarks Commission in 1975 when few thought the city should take an active role in ensuring the survival of Boston’s historic neighborhoods, and they have been an unfailing example for us all ever since.
