Copley Square, Pedestrian zone at Copley Square in Back Bay, Boston, US.
Copley Square features a central fountain surrounded by paved surfaces, with expansive seating areas and shaded spaces beneath mature trees.
The City of Boston transformed a section of Dartmouth Street in 2022 through the Copley Connect project, establishing a vehicle-free space for pedestrians.
Regular events at Copley Square include outdoor concerts, food markets, dance performances, and the Boston Marathon Fan Festival celebrations.
The renovated square includes raised platforms near trees to protect root systems while providing comfortable seating areas for visitors.
The square's fountain maintains its original obelisks and spouts while incorporating new safety measures with reduced pool depth and curved edges.
