Underground at Ink Block

Tourist attraction Park Art gallery

😐 I have mixed feelings regarding this location. Of course it's beautiful, and the art is amazing. It's just that I remember the location before it became the Art Park and it's just that the change is a little sad to me. Sure, it may have been less beautiful to the mainstream, but it was beautiful to... People often mention walk,

    I have mixed feelings regarding this location. Of course it's beautiful, and the art is amazing. It's just that I remember the location before it became the Art Park and it's just that the change is a little sad to me. Sure, it may have been less beautiful to the mainstream, but it was beautiful to me before its makeover. It used to be a place for Boston's homeless to go. And now we feel uncomfortable there too. I can concede that it was likely uncomfortable for most people to walk through at nighttime previously. There was more trash including, I'm sure, drug paraphernalia. But people slept there before. Now, if one even appears homeless, one can count on being harassed and asked to leave. It's a double edge sword. It's an upgrade, for sure, for that space. Yet it's just one more place that the homeless have been pushed out of. And that is an issue plaguing said community throughout Boston. That having been said. It is now a nice place to walk and observe the wonderful art. Boston is lacking as a whole as a place for street art in general. I, personally, would like to see more murals around the entire city, commissioned and otherwise.

    What a very creative use of a public space. This is a cool little area of Boston that many tourists don't seem to congregate in (at least in the autumn when I visited) and is a wonderful place to walk around and check out some magnificent street art. There are some excellent pieces in this area, and it will be wonderful to see future pieces erected as time goes on. There is a little dog park for your furry friend to mingle in if you bring your pupper with you. I enjoyed my visit here.

    It is amazing here! I love all of the artwork that is around this parking garage. It is a perfect place to take pictures at, either with vehicles, or posing with the different works of beautiful art.

    Enjoy the artwork and walk through here often on my way from southie to the south end. Has potential, but doesn’t feel the safest walking through alone at night given homeless population tends to hang out here.

    An absolute gem! Whether you happen to be in the area, or love exploring public art, definitely a great spot to take a stroll through. It's fairly empty in the middle of the day, but hosts a variety of fitness classes and events~

    Great free low key activity and very Instagramable. It is hidden under the highway, and parking is available right infrinte in front butubut it can be expensive. Park on off street parking and walk over. All the art work can be seen in under an hour. 1 star off because there could be alot more murals! Otherwise a great light, easy activity for anyone.

    This was okay - a cool spot to visit but it didn't feel very safe and it was very unclear how to get to some of the art. Plus, the entire thing is in a car park, so watch out! Definitely some cool graffiti but the area could do with more signage/love.

    Definitely worth the $20 I paid to park and look at unique art and go into the city for a couple of hours
