Vision Plan

The Vision Plan for the future of MCI Concord is now live! This is a significant milestone in our collective effort to reposition the historic prison site as a sustainable, vital district that is connected to its community, natural surroundings, the region, and its history.

Assembled collaboratively with the community over the course of spring 2025, this plan reflects hundreds of perspectives alongside broad analysis of the opportunities and constraints of this complex site. Community memory and voice are integral to the vision as motivators and inspiration for a site future that meets current and future needs and aligns with community values. This plan lays the groundwork for how we as a town should consider potential futures for the site.

The MCI Concord Advisory Board, in close partnership with local leaders, Concord residents, and stakeholders, is committed to ensuring that future development of this catalytic site reflects the values, needs, and aspirations of those it is meant to serve. This is an ongoing conversation, and we invite you to continue to engage with us about your perspectives on the development scenarios presented here. Together, we can turn this opportunity into a lasting legacy for future generations.

Note: The Vision Plan was published on September 15, 2025. There will be further developments from the MCI Concord Advisory Board that will not be captured in the report.
