BOSTON- September 12, 2023 - The City of Boston has been awarded a Municipal Vulnerability Preparedness (MVP) grant of $330,500 to advance the design of coastal resilience strategies extending along Bennington Street in East Boston and Frederick's Park in Revere, the first grant through Climate Ready Boston involving a project than spans two municipalities.
