(Photo Courtesy of the City of Everett) D uring the past several years, the Everett Waterfront has undergone quite a transformation. From improving the water quality to creating more green spaces and waterfront recreation, Mayor Carlo DeMaria has remained committed to improving the city’s environmental resources and creating more public access to the waterfront. Most recently, the Island End River was “daylighted,” or freed from previously collapsed debris, which was causing severe flooding issues in the city. The river, which was one of the most polluted bodies of water in the Mystic River Watershed, now flows into an environmentally friendly stream and successfully raised its rating with the Environmental Protection Agency from an F to a B-.

They also created a living shoreline – one of only two in Massachusetts – which is a more natural barrier versus a typically used seawall. What was once a contaminated Monsanto chemical plant has now become a major point of pride within the city. Beyond the Harborwalk, you’ll find a walking path to Gateway Park, which has further opened up previously inaccessible waterfront. Keep heading north and you’ll find Rivergreen Park. A former General Electric site, this Malden River strip of land has been completely overhauled. There are now more than two miles of shoreline available for public enjoyment, including playgrounds, parks, ballfields and a kayak and a canoe launch, which has long been a goal of the mayor and became a reality last year EVOLVE | SEE PAGE 17 tral administration which will lead to positive outcomes for all voices of our community.
