"The champion of this department was Levy Restaurants, an event and catering company associated with Hynes Convention Center. Levy’s cupcakes were basically beyond words. I’ve never tasted a better crafted cupcake in my entire 26 year-cupcake-eating-life."

Interactive Kaleidoscope Garden replaces glowing swings at the Lawn on D

The glowing oval swings that graced the Lawn on D in South Boston have been replaced with an interactive vision-bending display.

Officials with the Massachusetts Convention Center Authority, which operates the Lawn on D and commissioned the popular swings, said in a statement that wear and tear, and a lack of replacement swings, led to the display’s retirement.

Kaleidoscope Garden, the newly opened art installation, invites visitors to walk through a field of illuminated discs that change color with the movement of the wind and surround a mirror kaleidoscope. Sarah Brophy and Katherine Chin co-designed the exhibit in partnership with Perkins&Will, a Boston-based design studio.
