Boston’s Red Sox Fenway Gardens Strega Deck
In the spring of 2015, the 2,400 square feet of Fenway Farms was planted. An innovative environmental project created a roof garden for produce atop the 5,000 square foot roof deck over the front office of the Boston Red Sox Fenway Park. Located on the third base side of the ballpark above Yankee Way, this unique roof deck farm was a collaboration between the Red Sox and two local Somerville firms, Recover Green Roofs and Green City Growers.

Modera Lofts by Mill Creek

In addition to an opened and modernized interior highlighting the brick and thick wood beam construction, Mill Creek added a world class roof deck for tenants to enjoy the spectacular views of Manhattan across the river. The entire roof of this historic structure was redemised into dining areas, a sports field, and outdoor cinema, with plenty more space for lounging in the sun or having sunset drinks.
