Author Nancy Seasholes discusses the history and creation of Back Bay Fens, a park and saltwater marshland in the Back Bay neighborhood in Boston. When the area became heavily polluted in the 19th Century, Frederick Law Olmsted was challenged to restore and reinvigorate the marshy area and create an urban wildlife refuge.
