CPA Projects – Detailed Report

The Mystic River Watershed Association (MyWRA) in partnership with the City of Somerville will continue improvements of Blessing of the Bay Park, following a vision that was prepared under a previous CPA grant. This phase will entail the completion of 100% design and permitting to facilitate the creation of a one-half mile shared use community path by converting 0.61 acres of roadway to expand the area of the park. The project will also incorporate shade trees and green infrastructure to increase tree canopy and improve the health of the riverfront.
