Heavy snow is expected now through Monday morning. Please stay off the roads. Fewer vehicles improve safety for our equipment operators and first responders. A snow emergency and parking ban is currently in effect in the City of Boston.

Only in Boston: swearing my oath to support & defend the Constitution on the 1782 Bible of the American Revolution
Congratulations to @mayorwu.boston.gov for celebrating her second inaugural yesterday!

We were honored to be a part of this historic moment, as she again chose the “Bible of the Revolution” from our Special Collections for her second swearing-in ceremony.

@wutrain.bsky.social inauguration live thread!
2026 marks 4 years and 2 months since our administration took office—and 250 years since our nation was born.

250 years ago on this very day, a young man—the son of immigrants, and a BPS alum—was standing on the banks of a half-frozen river, focused on getting home to Boston. #BostonInauguration

Michelle Wu will be sworn in as Boston's mayor for the second time on Mon., Jan. 5 at Boston Symphony Hall. When she convenes her first meeting with senior staff and cabinet chiefs, there’ll be many familiar faces, but with different roles and titles.

Because of a state law, residential property owners in Boston are projected to face a 13% tax spike next year.

Meanwhile, corporations will pay their lowest share of property taxes in 43 years.

I’m hosting an AMA on Reddit about our plan to protect homeowners and deliver residential tax relief.

Why do I love living in Boston? Yo-Yo Ma playing the Bach cello suites before bringing Mayor Wu out to duet for an encore, that’s why.
