Conversion of the East Boston Master Plan from raster PDF to HTML and assets

East Boston Master Plan

This was converted in July 2018 by Nat Taylor from the PDF available at bostonplans.org

The goal is to make it more readable, especially on phones/tablets and as such the positioning of some of the figures has changed and some typographical errors are present due to the image-to-text conversion.

Please submit corrections to nattaylor@gmail.com
