Implementation of the East Acton Village Green at the corner of Concord Road and Great Road on the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail. Previous CPA funding for this project was tabled due to the imminent construction of the Bruce Freeman Rail Trail. The rail trail is now completed. The site is owned by the Town. This parcel is the site of the former railroad depot at the heart of historic East Acton Village, formerly also knows as Ellsworth Village, which was once the hub of a vibrant community with Ice House Pond. Blocks of ice were cut and shipped by wagon and railroad to insulated clipper ships in Boston. The project scope includes clearing and landscaping of the site; installation of a walkway, benches, and accessible picnic table; installation of historic educational panels and a kiosk.
