Sealing Up Roxbury's Past for Future Generations

 In 2013, a time capsule was discovered behind the cornerstone of Hibernian Hall and the mystery of its contents were shared with the public at a gala celebrating the hall's centennial. To mark MPDC's 50th anniversary, we are preparing to seal another time capsule to be placed in the bricks of Hibernian Hall.

Some items inside the 2015 copper time capsule container are an autographed photo of President Obama; messages and images from Governor Baker and Mayor Walsh; political memorabilia and biographies from elected officials representing Roxbury; information about Dudley Square businesses and Roxbury residents; memorabilia of Boston's sports teams; information about the latest 2015 technology; a CD by Boston native Donna Summer; information about Roxbury-based musicians Roy Haynes and New Edition; 2015 coins; copies of the Boston Globe, Boston Herald & Bay State Banner; and a message from our CEO Jeanne Pinado along with information about MPDC and Hibernian Hall.
 
The time capsule will be interred soon.
