Stand inside our ¼ replica of the original Hatch Shell, located between the Hatch Shell and the Esplanade Playspace playground. This Hatchling is visible from the Arthur Fiedler Footbridge entrance to the Esplanade. There is no parking available at this location. There is an ADA-compliant park entrance at the Fanny Appleton Footbridge, across from the Charles / MGH MBTA station. The Charles / MGH MBTA station is approximately ½ mile from the installation location.

About Hatchlings:
The Esplanade Association is proud to present Hatchlings, a winter lights display that will illuminate the Charles River Esplanade and The Rose Kennedy Greenway from November 2023 through February 2024.

This 100% solar-powered installation, brought to life by the creative minds at Studio HHH, whimsically imagines what would happen if the iconic Hatch Shell hatched a cluster of baby 'shells' that embarked on a delightful adventure down The Greenway.

These nine miniature Hatch Shells, affectionately known as the Hatchlings, will dot The Greenway and the Esplanade, each adorned with vibrant arches in colorful animated lights. It's a playful celebration of Boston's landmarks and a nod to a brighter, more environmentally sustainable future.
