Parkway, Boston

Parkway is a section of the West Roxbury and Roslindale neighborhoods of Boston, Massachusetts. Parkway takes its name from the parkways that pass through West Roxbury, specifically West Roxbury Parkway (constructed 1919 - 1929) and VFW Parkway (constructed 1930 - 1942). Much of the land that makes up Parkway was once owned by the Weld family, as evidenced by Weld Street that runs though the area.
