About
Our City Plays Here.
The Gaslight District is a new kind of public place designed to connect people through the act of play with strangers and neighbours—for FREE. It encompasses a 1-acre public square, surrounded by century-old limestone foundry buildings that speak to Cambridge’s past. This pedestrian- friendly space is a new kind of “Infrastructure for the Human Spirit” that helps people play in public in ways that start to define an inclusive community identity.
The Vision
Our vision was driven by a belief that creating meaningful connections between people should be a city’s most important job. Quality of life, better mental health, and the innovations that our economy runs on all come from a sense of a united and collaborative community.
So here we are—all together and finding ways to enjoy each other’s company. It’s no longer just a vision. It’s a wonderful reality.
