The Lynch Family Skatepark is seeing some real progress after a ceremonial groundbreaking in 2014. According to WBUR, it’s a $3 million, 40,000 square foot plan designed by California Skateparks. It’s another sizable park built under a bridge in a relatively barren area.

Well after last week’s fiasco, I dug up this shot from when I went on a road trip to Boston back in ’88 or ’89. I can’t remember. This shot is an enlargement from one I took at a spot called Metals. I don’t remember the skater’s name, but he was just one of the many friendly, stoked locals I met. Everyone flowed when I was there. This was probably some sort of wall jam plant off the side of the metal bank that was an freestanding sculpture. Check out the full frame Shot of the Week.
