Boston Harbor Heroes
Waves of Change 1986–2011
Just 25 years ago, Boston Harbor was a national disgrace, as our waste washed up on the beach and shore from Cape Cod to Cape Ann. Working together we changed all that.
Today, Boston Harbor, Boston's waterfront and the Boston Harbor Islands are civic assets for all Bostonians, the region's residents, and visitors to enjoy. And, thanks to the remarkable success of the Boston Harbor Clean-up, Boston Harbor is now home to some of the cleanest urban beaches in America!
Save the Harbor / Save the Bay would like to acknowledge the many individuals whose dedication, commitment, and passion transformed Boston Harbor from a harbor of shame to a source of opportunity and pride. These Boston Harbor Heroes include:
- Judge A. David Mazzone
- Congressman Joe Moakley
- Governor Deval Patrick
- Mayor Thomas M. Menino
- Jack Connors, Jr.
- Paul S. Grogan
