Friends Host Brewer Plaza Tour Thursday

The Friends of the Public Garden are hoping to complete the renovations through more fundraising.

The Friends of the Public Garden are holding a tour Thursday of the Brewer Fountain Plaza on Boston Common as they plan to complete the renovation project in the area.

According to the Friends' website, Executive Director Elizabeth Vizza will lead the tour starting at 4 p.m. to show the area of the Boston Common that has been the subject of a $4 million renovation project by the Friends.

They also plan to discuss how they'd like to complete the project. The final phase of the Brewer renovation includes work on the Lafayette Mall, for which the Friends recently sought approval from the Boston Landmarks Commission.

The Friends are conducting a special matching challenge to raise the $875,000 needed to complete the project.
