We will soon begin repaving the main driveway outside the Yawkey, Menino, and Moakley buildings. Weather permitting, driveway closures are scheduled for the following weekends, from Friday at 8 p.m. through Sunday at 8 p.m., on the following dates: Sept. 19-21, Sept. 26-28, Oct. 17-19, and Oct. 24-26. 

Access Changes During Construction:

Pedestrian Access: Patients and visitors will be able to enter Moakley through the entrance on East Concord Street.    

Vehicle Access: Vehicular traffic should use the designated drop-off and pick-up area on East Concord Street or the 710 Albany Street Garage. Signage will indicate where metered parking has been blocked off to create a drop-off/pick-up zone (on E. Concord between Harrison and the Moakley side entrance).

Lemony Broccoli and Bean Salad

Salad

Bean Salad

This is a simple salad to put together because it calls for canned beans and frozen broccoli. You may use another frozen vegetable of choice, such as green beans or bell peppers. If you prefer to cook your beans from scratch and use fresh vegetables, go ahead! The fresh vegetables can be added raw for a crunchy salad, or you can steam them and them add them to the salad. This protein and fiber-rich salad is dressed with oil, garlic, and lemon juice.
