BPDA delivers funding to West End Museum to support rehabilitation efforts following flood

The Boston Planning & Development Agency (BPDA) announced today the delivery of $569,118 in funding to the West End Museum, provided by The HYM Investment Group (“HYM”), BXP, and Delaware North. The museum shut down almost a year ago when a burst pipe caused catastrophic flooding, and has remained closed since then due to significant damage. While only three photographs made up the archival loss, the physical exhibits and space were ruined and will need to be replaced. This funding will allow the museum to create a new space where they can rebuild and replace the exhibits.

“The West End Museum is a historical treasure that reflects Boston’s cultural legacy,” said Mayor Michelle Wu. “I’m excited that this funding will support the reopening of this important cultural institution. I’m grateful to the BPDA and our community partners for ensuring that this neighborhood’s history can be connected to our communities for generations to come.”
