finally over, as the Boston College women’s rowing
team moved into its new home, the Harry Parker

the Charles River between Boston and Newton, is
a state-of-the art building featuring 30,000 square
feet of space and a unique architectural design that
brings the outdoors inside

rowing machines, and the building features a first-
class weight room and locker rooms Additional

as classrooms The building is also environmentally
friendly, with geo-thermal heating units and a
special drainage system to keep runoff from the
boathouse and surrounding parking areas from
draining into the river

Boston College’s new facility, earned two awards for
their innovative work Architect Magazine honored
the new structure as a smart and progressive design
