Our Mission

A Better City (ABC) advances infrastructure investments and projects that are vital to sustaining and growing the Boston area's economy and ensuring that Boston remains one of the most dynamic and unique cities in the world.  Comprised of leaders from business and major institutions, the ABC is focused on solving problems and developing strategies that ensure the continuity and progress of significant transportation, land development, and public realm projects.  A Better City is built on the foundation of over fifteen years of success as the Artery Business Committee, widely credited with achieving consensus and keeping Boston open for business during the Central Artery/Tunnel project, the largest and most complex urban infrastructure project ever undertaken in the United States.
