Environmental Community of Practice Field Trip: Historic New England's Pierce House

Join the ECoP co-facilitators and hear from Historic New England staff about their overall climate action plan, and the specific planning for the Pierce House in Dorchester. Tour the property through the lens of climate as well as physical access. We’ll then discuss what we learn considering your site: from interpretation to infrastructure, what can you bring back to implement in the coming weeks and months? Continue the conversation with a pay-for-yourself lunch at a nearby restaurant.


The property has a door that is not wide enough for a wheelchair. However, an accommodation can be made to allow access through the door. If you are someone who uses a wheelchair and would like to register, please reach out to Paul Fenton (cGZlbnRvbiB8IGRpc2NvdmVyeWFjdG9uICEgb3Jn) when you do.
Street parking is available and the property is about a 15 minute walk from the Ashmont Station on the Red Line.
