"We're all on this path together; we may not walk at the same pace, and often we may feel like we are going in different directions, sometimes in step with each other, some- times alone.

A Labyrinth that Connects the Past to the Future The newest labyrinth to be found in the Boston area—in fact, the only one on public land—is on the Rose Kennedy Greenway near the North End. The 62-foot-wide labyrinth at Armenian Heritage Park consists of nine concentric circles with a single path lead- ing to the center and back out. The labyrinth is part of a half-acre parcel that is a gift to the City of Boston and the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from local Armenian- Americans, built at no cost to taxpayers.
