Ring in the New Year with an Italian Masquerade at Terra at Eataly Boston
When it comes to throwing a party, Terra knows how it’s done…by adding fun cocktails, smoky bites, and a festive Italian twist to the mix! On December 31, don your finest mask (or we will provide you with one, too!) and ascend to our greenhouse oasis for a grand Italian masquerade. As soon as you enter the party, you’ll be greeted by complimentary bubbly to kick off the evening. Our live band, The Silver Arrow Band, will play sweet tunes as party-goers dance the night away under the sparkling stars—all while balancing enticing cocktails in hand. And the perfect accompaniment to those hand-crafted drinks? Rustic bites from Terra, one of Boston’s ‘Top 50 Restaurants of 2018!’ Terra’s award-winning Executive Chef Dan Bazzinotti has designed a very special menu of passed appetizers for guests to indulge in throughout the night.
As the clock approaches the new year, celebrate the new year Italian-style with a midnight toast of Ferrari Brut!
Ticket includes:
- Glass of welcome wine
- Midnight toast of Ferrari Brut
- Passed Terra appetizers throughout the evening

PUBLIC INFORMATION MEETING
BOSTON – CLARENDON STREET
I-90 WB ON-RAMP PERMANENT CLOSURE
——————————————————————————————————————————————-
Who: Massachusetts Department of Transportation
When: Tuesday, August 27th at 6:00 PM
Where: Boston Public Library in Copley Square
Commonwealth Salon — Please use the 700 Boylston Street entrance of the Library
700 Boylston St, Boston, MA 02116
——————————————————————————————————————————————-
On Tuesday, August 27th at 6:00 PM, the Massachusetts Department of Transportation will join area officials for a public information meeting regarding the permanent closure of the I-90 Westbound Clarendon Street on-ramp which will take place on September 3, 2019.
This closure is being implemented following approval from the Federal Highway Administration and due to concerns over safety and effective travel at this location. The on-ramp has limited sight distance for drivers, meaning they have little visibility of other vehicles when they are merging onto the highway, and it is too short for vehicles to accelerate to the appropriate speed at the access point. The crash rate at this on-ramp is also higher than the rates at other on-ramps in the local area.
This meeting location is accessible to people with disabilities. MassDOT provides reasonable accommodations and/or language assistance free of charge upon request (including but not limited to interpreters in American Sign Language and languages other than English, open or closed captioning for videos, assistive listening devices and alternate material formats, such as audio tapes, Braille and large print), as available. For accommodation or language assistance, please contact MassDOT’s Chief Diversity and Civil Rights Officer by phone (857-368-8580), fax (857-368-0602), TTD/TTY (857-368-0603) or by email (MassDOT.CivilRights@dot.state.ma.us). Requests should be made as soon as possible prior to the meeting, and for more difficult to arrange services including sign-language, CART or language translation or interpretation, requests should be made at least ten (10) business days before the meeting.
For transportation news and updates visit MassDOT at their website, blog, or follow MassDOT on Twitter at and Facebook.
