A climate change adaptation initiative called Climate Ready Boston is underway in Boston, USA. As measures to reduce flood damage in the coastal areas, which is expected to occur frequently due to rising tides, plans for spatial reorganization in those areas are shown in the initiative. How will the coastal spaces change in the future? From August to September 2019, field surveys and interviews with three landscape architects involved in the plans were conducted to grasp the current situation as well as future image. The results are reported in this paper.
