  • Armenian Heritage Park is a memorial park dedicated to the victims of the Armenian genocide located on Parcel 13 on the Rose Kennedy Greenway between Faneuil Hall Marketplace and Christopher Columbus Park in Boston, Massachusetts. The Park includes an abstract sculpture, split dodecahedron, that sits on a reflecting pool. The abstract sculpture has 24–26 different configurations, which symbolize the dispersion and coming together of immigrants from different shores. The abstract sculpture is dedicated to lives lost during the Armenian genocide of 1915–1923 and all genocides that have followed. The other part of it is a grass labyrinth that not only pays tribute to the contribution to the United States, but also represents the journey of life. The Armenian Heritage Foundation, composed of dozens of Armenian-American religious, cultural, and other organizations from around Massachusetts, raised from $5 million to $6 million for the park. The groundbreaking ceremony on September 9, 2010, was attended by Governor Deval Patrick, Karekin II, Catholicos of All Armenians, Registrar of Motor Vehicles Rachel Kaprielian, Sheriff of Middlesex County Peter Koutoujian, Boston Mayor Thomas Menino and many Armenian-American citizens and City and Commonwealth officials. Governor Patrick said that the park will be a "beautiful addition to the Greenway as well as a testament to the heritage of Armenian-Americans and Massachusetts' larger immigrant history". Mayor Menino also noted that the park "celebrates the distinctive history of the City of Boston and the generations of immigrants who have made Boston the wonderfully diverse community it is today". Construction of the park was expected to be completed within 12 months, but actually lasted over a year and the park was opened on May 22, 2012. Armenian Minister of Foreign Affairs Eduard Nalbandyan and Governor Deval Patrick joined hundreds of attendees from the Armenian community at the dedication of the park. In "On the Greenway, public arts that feels alive", Joanna Weiss, columnist for The Boston Globe, Opinion, April 11, 2015, wrote, "The Abstract Sculpture at Armenian Heritage Park "might well be the gem of the Greenway so far; an example of public art that is both permanent and alive" On July 31, 2022, Armenian singer-songwriter Maléna, winner of the Junior Eurovision Song Contest 2021, performed her winning track "Qami Qami" at the park.

  • Der Armenische Kulturerbe-Park (englisch Armenian Heritage Park) ist ein den Opfern des Völkermords an den Armeniern im Osmanischen Reich gewidmeter in Boston, Massachusetts. Er befindet sich an der Parzelle 13 des Rose Kennedy Greenway zwischen der Faneuil Hall und dem Christopher-Columbus-Park. Die Grundsteinlegung erfolgte am 9. September 2010. Das Denkmal umfasst als zentrales Element eine Skulptur, die von einem reflektierenden Gewässer umrundet ist. Die Skulptur hat 24 bis 26 verschiedene Konfigurationen, welche die Zerstreuung der Diaspora und zugleich das Zusammenkommen von Einwanderern aus verschiedenen Ländern symbolisiert. Der andere Teil ist ein Graslabyrinth, das nicht nur den armenischen Beitrag zu den Vereinigten Staaten würdigt, sondern auch den allgemeinen Weg des Lebens repräsentiert. Die Armenian Heritage Foundation, die aus Dutzenden armenisch-amerikanischen Religions-, Kultur und anderen Organisationen in und um Massachusetts besteht, sammelte 5 Millionen bis 6 Millionen US-Dollar für die Errichtung des Gedächtnisparks. Beim ersten Spatenstich am 22. Mai 2012 waren der Gouverneur Deval Patrick, Karekin II., Katholikos aller Armenier, in ihrer Eigenschaft als Registrar of Motor Vehicles, der Sheriff des Middlesex County , Bostons Bürgermeister Thomas Menino und viele Amerikaner armenischer Herkunft sowie Stadt- und Staatsbeamte zugegen. Die Bauzeit des Parks wurde zunächst auf eine Dauer von zwölf Monaten angesetzt, zog sich allerdings länger hin; die Eröffnung erfolgte schließlich am 22. Mai 2012. Der armenische Minister für Auswärtige Angelegenheiten Edward Nalbandjan und der Gouverneur Deval Patrick begleiteten hunderte Anwesende von der armenischen Gemeinde bei der Einweihung des Parkes. * Die Inschrift * Das Labyrinth * Weg durch das Labyrinth (de)
