About Wharf District Council

OUR MISSION: To bring the neighborhood together to discuss and deal with matters related to planning, development, construction, transportation and community related issues. The Wharf District Council (WDC) is a 501(C)3 non-profit neighborhood organization, recognized by the Mayor's Office and the City of Boston as representing the community on matters relating to planning, development, construction, programming events and transportation in the District. It serves as the neighborhood's voice in matters that require a community opinion and/or action. Its purpose is to help the decision makers make the right decisions on our community related issues The membership is made up of residents, hotels, non-profit institutions, small businesses and A Better City, representing the major businesses in the District. Meetings are held on the third Tuesday of the month. Meetings include council members selected by each member organization, as well as non-voting participants from local organizations, the City of Boston and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. Each member organization has one vote. Meetings are open to the public. Established in 2010, the WDC evolved from the Wharf District Task Force (WDTF), created in 2001. The WDTF was established during the “Big Dig Project” – the demolition of the Central Artery and creation of the Rose Kennedy Greenway – to represent the community on the Mayor’s Central Artery Completion Task Force.
