Storrow Drive, Parkway along Charles River in Boston, United States.
Storrow Drive extends east to west on the southern bank of Charles River, connecting multiple districts of Boston through a 10-foot height restricted roadway.
The construction of this major urban parkway began in 1950, leading to its official inauguration by Governor Paul A. Dever on June 15, 1951.
Local residents have coined the term 'Storrowed' to describe incidents where vehicles collide with the low-clearance bridges spanning across the parkway.
The Massachusetts Department of Conservation implements regular night closures from 8 p.m. to 5 a.m. for maintenance work between Leverett Circle and Massachusetts Avenue.
Despite being named after James J. Storrow, his widow Helen actively opposed the construction of this parkway along the Charles River Basin.
