A large riverfront park built on a former GE industrial site next to Encore Boston Harbor, replacing the old Lynde Park that was lost to casino parking; it has a turf field, a roller hockey rink, basketball courts, a splash pad and playground, a canoe/kayak launch, and a RiverWalk path linking to the Northern Strand Community Trail.
What to expect
Dogs
Everett requires dogs in any public street or place to be restrained on a leash no longer than eight feet, and owners must pick up after their dogs. That's the town-wide default; watch for posted signs here.
Hours
Everett's city parks are open from 6:00 a.m. to dusk, defined as thirty minutes after sunset, and are closed outside those hours. Posted hours at the entrance win if they differ.

- This site is still listed in some older city and mapping records as 'Nathan Lynde Playground.' The old Lynde Park on lower Broadway was taken for casino construction parking, and this rebuilt riverfront site is now commonly branded Rivergreen Park.
