You can cast a vote for Boston’s best new architecture
The Boston Society of Architecture announced its finalists for the 2024 Harleston Parker Medal and People’s Choice Award.
The Boston Society for Architecture (BSA) has announced its three finalists for its 2024 Harleston Parker Medal.
The award, which was created in 1921 in memory of Boston architect J. Harleston Parker, recognizes “the most beautiful piece of architecture, building, monument, or structure built in the metropolitan Boston area in the past 10 years,” the BSA said in a press release.
This year’s finalists include the Adams Street Branch of the Boston Public Library, the Harvard University District Energy Facility, and the Roxbury Branch of the Boston Public Library renovation.
The winner is decided by a jury of professionals, including artists, architects, planners, designers, and public servants, according to the BSA.

The public also has the opportunity to vote on the selected finalists through the Harleston Parker People’s Choice Award. This award promotes “broader recognition and awareness of design impacts within our local communities,” the BSA said.
The winners of both awards will be privately revealed Mar. 5 at the annual BSA Awards Gala. All proceeds from the gala contribute to the BSA Foundation, which aims to “improve the lives of Boston area residents through innovation in the built environment with an emphasis on sustainability and social equity,” the BSA said.
The People’s Choice Award ballot is open on the BSA’s website until Jan. 31.
