Doyle, who leads major development projects in Boston for WS, and Miner, whose design and planning work extends from Boston throughout the East Coast, are also both top leaders at Boston Harbor Now. Miner serves on the non-profit organization’s Board of Trustees and Doyle on its Board of Advisors.
This year’s theme for Spectacle on Spectacle, “The Power of Now,” highlights the urgency of protecting the harbor and its surrounding communities, and the opportunity to take action today for long-term impact—keeping these valuable assets active, accessible, protected, and resilient.
Beginning with a short cruise out to Spectacle from Long Wharf, the beach-party event includes will feature seasonal, chef-crafted small plates; a stationary raw bar with fresh oysters; clambake, short rib, and empanada stations; and a selection of summer-inspired pastries and cookies to close the evening. Drinks will be provided by 90 Cellars and Maine Beer, two local favorites. Live music and dancing are also part of the fun, before a cruise back to Long Wharf overlooking, weather allowing, a beautiful sunset over the harbor.
