• MARY CUMMINGS PARK. The Mary Cummings Park adjacent to Quail Run was given in trust to the City of Boston in 1930. The trust specified that the land be kept "forever open as a public pleasure ground." It is a good place to visit if you walk for exercise, but wear appropriate boots during mud season. This past summer was a mud season from beginning to end. It is accessible through a gate in upper Vine Brook Way.
  
  
  
  
  Boston has considered trying to break the trust and sell it for development. Considerable progress has been made in the past year to legally protect the land and the Trust. Another movement is afoot to build 300 apartment units on the Northeastern University land that drives a wedge down the middle of the Mary Cummings Park land close to Quail Run. Court decisions in the past year have restricted this development downwards from an earlier attempt to buiild up to 540 units. The economy is also helping slow down moves towards development of the Northeastern land. The Quail Run Trustees and concerned members are working to see what more we can or should do about these twin threats in order to protect our property values and quality of life in Quail Run. See our Cummings Park page and the Friends of Cummings Park web page for more information.
