This is an artist's rendering of the $20 million Massachusetts Bay Transportation Authority’s Boston Landing Station on the Worcester-Framingham commuter rail line, which athletic shoe manufacturer New Balance is funding through a public-private partnership. Massachusetts Gov. Charlie Baker and state Transportation Secretary Stephanie Pollack joined representatives of New Balance at May 12 ground-breaking ceremonies at the site of the station, located in the Allston-Brighton neighborhood near the company’s headquarters. The station, scheduled to open in the fall of 2016, will be the first in the neighborhood in more than half a century.
