Commonwealth Avenue Mall, located in Boston's Back Bay neighborhood, spans 32 acres and was designed in the French boulevard style by Arthur Gilman in 1856. Originally an inland bay, the area was transformed into an elegant green space that serves as a vital link between the Public Garden and Frederick Law Olmsted's park system.

The Mall features a variety of tree species, including American elms that have survived Dutch Elm disease, along with sweetgum, green ash, maple, and more. Managed in collaboration with the City of Boston's Parks Department, the Friends of the Public Garden is a non-profit group dedicated to preserving and enhancing this historic urban oasis.
