1984 Parker Hill/Mission Hill Study Report
From HistoricHydeSquare
The 1984 Parker Hill/Mission Hill Survey Report conducted for the Boston Landmarks Commission documented the historic resources in the Centre Street/Heath Street section of Jamaica Plain. This area was included in the Parker Hill/Mission Hill survey because the neighborhood was historically a part of Roxbury. (There is a separate 1984 Jamaica Plain Survey Report.)
The report is in two volumes: Part I is the process, overview, and historic district recommendations. Part II is a compilation of all of the inventory sheets, one for each documented building, organized alphabetically by street name.
This survey makes recommendations for the Blessed Sacrament, Bynner, Creighton, Evergreen, and Round Hill - Sunnyside districts. The Hyde Square district is recommended in the 1984 Jamaica Plain Survey Report.
