Description
Plans are developed for a 12-lane highway (Southwest Expressway) along the railroad right-of-way between Boston and Route 128. Hundreds of acres of South End, Roxbury and Jamaica Plain housing were razed for the highway, which sparks massive community protests, with the painting of "STOP I-95 — PEOPLE BEFORE HIGHWAYS" on a train-track wall as a symbol of resistance.
