Page 6 THE MALDEN ADVOCATE–Friday, September 8, 2023 WATERWAYS | FROM PAGE 1 The Malden River Works Project site, located at 356 Commercial St., is a fi ve-acre riverfront parcel that is home to the Department of Public Works (DPW). Several years ago, the city agreed to consider the introduction of public open space along the river’s edge as part of this project. The goal is to create a climate resilient waterfront park for all on the Malden River. Mayor Gary Christenson met with Municipal Vulnerability Coordinator for the Greater Boston Region Carolyn Meklenburg and the members of the River Works 13 million dollar project at Malden’s DPW lot. The Energy and Environmental Affairs S ecr etary for the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, Rebecca Tepper, was greeted by Mayor Gary Christenson last week. Lawrence A.
