The goal of this project was to evaluate the role of the Downtown Boston parking freeze in relation to both air pollution control and city development. We provided the Boston Air Pollution Control Commission with a comprehensive system for parking freeze management, merging all existing data with digital map layers of the freeze area. In the process, we analyzed the value of the freeze in terms of the city's growth since the inception of the freeze.
